UNSPSC 85712957: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right carpal joint, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right carpal joint, external 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 0RWQXKZ

UNSPSC 85712957 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right carpal joint, external approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not involve tissue substitutes, joint revision, or orthopedic surgical procedures. Instead, they cover occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, disability medical evaluation services, surgical Centers of Excellence networks, emergency medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these services involve the orthopedic surgical intervention the code describes. The mismatch suggests either misclassification in the issuing bodies' tagging systems or that this code is not being actively used by state and local governments for procurement that matches its nominal scope.

The recent opportunities do reflect broader medical and health service purchasing by state agencies, county health systems, municipal retirement offices, and county probation departments across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office issued an RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation issued an IFB for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; the City of Long Beach issued an RFP for surgical Centers of Excellence carve-out benefits due October 7, 2026; and Santa Clara County Health System issued an RFQ for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. These opportunities show active procurement of clinical evaluation, occupational health compliance, and staffing services, but they do not reflect demand for orthopedic tissue revision procedures or related surgical supplies that the commodity code nominally addresses. Pursuit under this code designation carries execution risk; potential bidders should confirm with issuing bodies that their service or product falls within the intended scope before investing in proposal development.
