UNSPSC 85704833: Removal of autologous tissue substitute from left patella, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of autologous tissue substitute from left patella, percutaneous endoscopic approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 0QPF47Z

UNSPSC 85704833 Removal of autologous tissue substitute from left patella, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, specialty surgical carve-out benefits, youth detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve removal of tissue substitutes or orthopedic surgical procedures. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the state and local procurement systems or the code's assignment to opportunities for administrative convenience rather than procedure specificity.

The recent opportunities show issuing bodies including city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health systems (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), state transportation departments (Washington), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), and county government human resources divisions (Collier County), reflecting a mix of administrative healthcare purchasing and occupational health compliance work. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, and Texas, with no dominant concentration. No opportunities directly related to the orthopedic tissue-removal procedure described in the code appear in the recent posting history.
