UNSPSC 85712925 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right metacarpophalangeal joint, external approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The six recent opportunities tagged under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, surgical carve-out benefits, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty medical services for detained youth, and emergency medical services — none of which involve the orthopedic tissue replacement procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch between the code's medical-device focus and the services actually being solicited suggests that state and local procurement offices are applying this code inconsistently or that the opportunities have been miscoded in the source system.

The issuing bodies include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and commissioners offices (Santa Clara County, Collier County, Harris County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and a specialized public board (Phoenix Fire Pension Board and Phoenix Police Pension Board). Geographic spread covers Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas, with no single jurisdiction dominating. Recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026; and the City of Long Beach's surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits RFP due October 7, 2026 — all of which address managed healthcare services rather than tissue-replacement products or procedures. Given the code's apparent misapplication, pursue opportunities only after verifying the actual commodity or service scope in the RFP attachment or solicitation website.
