UNSPSC 85711337: Supplement left sternoclavicular joint with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left sternoclavicular joint with autologous tissue substitute, 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 0RUF37Z

UNSPSC 85711337 Supplement left sternoclavicular joint with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent solicitations tagged under it encompass occupational medical surveillance services, pharmacy benefit management administration, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical center-of-excellence network management, temporary health professional staffing, and pediatric detention-facility medical services. None of these activities involve joint supplementation with autologous tissue substitutes. The mismatch between code definition and actual procurement suggests that either the tagging is erroneous or the code is being used as a catch-all proxy for healthcare services broadly, rendering the code's nominal scope uninformative for business development targeting.

The issuing bodies across recent opportunities span county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county government (Collier County, Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), and city government (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Geographic activity centers on California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County, Collier County), Arizona (Phoenix), and Washington (statewide ferries operations). Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026, covering examinations across 14 ferry-system locations, and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026, for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications at $750,000 over five years. The code shows no actual orthopedic surgical procedure procurement in the available records.
