This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left tarsal, percutaneous 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 0QPM3KZ

UNSPSC 85705311 Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left tarsal, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — a surgical procedure code — does not align with the actual work state and local governments are sourcing under it. Recent solicitations posted under this code do not involve tarsal or tissue-substitute procedures; instead, they reflect demand for occupational health surveillance, pension disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. The mismatch between the code's clinical descriptor and actual procurement activity suggests the code may have been assigned incorrectly in one or more opportunities or reflects a data-classification anomaly within procurement systems.

The geographic and issuing-body spread across recent postings is broad but unrelated to the code's stated scope. The Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance, RFP, due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability pension medical evaluations, RFP, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit network administration, RFP, due October 7, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services, RFI, due September 25, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management, RFP, due April 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary ancillary health professional staffing, RFP, due October 7, 2026) represent state departments, county governments, and city procurement offices across Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. The code shows no coherent recent activity aligned to its tarsal-procedure definition; firms evaluating opportunities under this code should verify correct classification with issuing bodies before bid preparation.
