UNSPSC 85711356: Removal of autologous tissue substitute from left acromioclavicular joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of autologous tissue substitute from left acromioclavicular joint, 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 0RPH37Z

UNSPSC 85711356 Removal of autologous tissue substitute from left acromioclavicular joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal clinical scope. The six recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code address occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record summary and independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which align with orthopedic joint surgery procedure coding. The code's clinical specificity (a named surgical procedure on a named joint) does not map to how state and local procurement offices actually classify health services contracts, which typically organize around functional capability categories (staffing, benefit administration, surveillance) rather than specific clinical procedures.

The recent opportunities span multiple jurisdictions and issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System. The mismatch between the code's procedure-specific taxonomy entry and the actual procurement activity suggests either a data-classification error in the state and local source systems or an artifact of how clinical terminology codes are applied in health benefits administration systems. Practitioners pursuing state and local health services contracts should monitor this code with caution and cross-reference solicitations against the actual scope of work rather than relying on the code name alone.
