UNSPSC 85715108: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right temporomandibular joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right temporomandibular joint, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0RWC4KZ

UNSPSC 85715108 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right temporomandibular joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure involving temporomandibular joint tissue replacement—does not match the work state and local governments are actually buying under this code designation. Recent opportunities tagged with this code encompass independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which align with the procedural surgical work the code name describes. This mismatch suggests either a classification error in how opportunities have been tagged or that the code is being applied to broader health services procurement in ways that diverge significantly from its stated definition.

The issuing bodies in the recent-opportunities record span multiple jurisdictions and service contexts: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (public safety pension disability evaluations), the City of Long Beach (employee health plan surgical benefits), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (occupational health screening), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty care for detained youth), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary ancillary clinical staffing). Geographic activity appears concentrated in the West and Southwest, with Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida representing the states where recent solicitations have been posted. Given the substantial disconnect between the code's procedural definition and the health-system-related services actually being solicited, firms should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before investing in pursuit.
