UNSPSC 85715004: Fusion of left temporomandibular joint with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of left temporomandibular 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 0RGD37Z

UNSPSC 85715004 Fusion of left temporomandibular 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 opportunities posted under this UNSPSC across state and local jurisdictions reflect administrative health services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary staffing — none of which are surgical procedures or temporomandibular joint fusion services.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent activity suggests either miscoding in the source data or that this Commodity code is not actively used to solicit the procedure it describes in state and local procurement. The opportunities on record — including independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension boards (City of Phoenix), surgical carve-out benefits administration (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency medical services for detained youth (Harris County), and pharmacy benefit management (Collier County) — represent administrative health plan services, occupational health programs, and clinical staffing, not surgical fusion procedures. No recent state or local solicitations explicitly procured fusion surgery, autologous tissue substitutes for joint repair, or percutaneous joint reconstruction services under this code or any related orthopedic surgery code in the source material.
