This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right tarsal with autologous tissue substitute, open 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 0QRL07Z

UNSPSC 85705060 Replacement of right tarsal with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure, but state and local procurement activity under this code bears no relationship to the code's clinical descriptor. Recent opportunities posted under this code actually solicit occupational health services, medical record review and summarization, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty surgical networks for public employee health plans—none of which involve tarsal replacement or autologous tissue procedures. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara), county commissioners' boards (Collier County), state transportation departments (Washington), city human resources divisions (Long Beach), county juvenile detention authorities (Harris County), and transit agencies. This code shows little to no relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope; the opportunities listed appear to have been tagged under an unrelated clinical procedure code by procurement offices without clinical taxonomy expertise.

Geographic activity spans Arizona (Phoenix retirement board RFP for independent medical evaluation services, October 16, 2026 response), California (Long Beach health plan surgical carve-out RFP, October 7, 2026; Santa Clara Health System temporary staffing qualification pool, October 7, 2026), Washington (WSDOT Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance, October 9, 2026), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management RFP, April 9, 2026 deadline), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department emergency and specialty medical services RFI, September 25, 2026). The code's tagging appears systematic but erroneous—the opportunities represent legitimate state and local health services procurement that should fall under different UNSPSC families related to health services administration, staffing placement, or occupational health, not surgical procedure codes. Business development professionals evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for its stated scope and verify correct UNSPSC coding with procurement offices before pursuing any of the opportunities listed under it.
