UNSPSC 85714941: Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left temporomandibular joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left temporomandibular 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 0RPD3KZ

UNSPSC 85714941, Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left temporomandibular joint, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code under which state and local governments do not procure the procedure itself or its clinical components. Instead, recent state and local activity shows this code capturing healthcare services contracts—medical evaluation, surveillance, benefit management, and staffing—that fall substantially outside the code's stated scope of a specific surgical intervention. The mismatch between the code's nominal orthopedic-surgical descriptor and the actual procurement activity suggests the code has limited relevance as a buying signal. The six recent opportunities posted across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington involve disability medical record summaries and independent medical examinations, occupational health surveillance, surgery benefit carve-outs and pharmacy administration, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth—none of which represent the removal of nonautologous tissue from the temporomandibular joint.

The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal government (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation and human resources functions (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and county health systems (County of Santa Clara Health System). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP for ferries personnel across 14 state locations (due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing in 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). No procurement activity under this code reflects its stated clinical scope, and business development professionals should verify directly with issuing bodies whether opportunities tagged to this code are miscoded or represent a different service line.
