UNSPSC 85721328: Revision of autologous tissue substitute in right metatarsal-phalangeal joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of autologous tissue substitute in right metatarsal-phalangeal joint, open 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 0SWM07Z

UNSPSC 85721328 (Revision of autologous tissue substitute in right metatarsal-phalangeal joint, open approach), a Commodity code, shows no alignment with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged to it. The code nominally describes a highly specific orthopedic surgical procedure—autologous tissue repair of a joint in the foot performed via open surgical approach—yet the recent solicitations under this code consist of independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and temporary health professional staffing, none of which involve tissue grafting, joint reconstruction, or metatarsal-phalangeal surgical intervention. The tagged opportunities appear to represent a tagging error rather than genuine commodities within the code's scope.

The issuing bodies include state health and transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation, County of Santa Clara Health System), county and city government units (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, City of Long Beach, City of Phoenix Retirement Office), spanning Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Geographic distribution across multiple regions and issuing-body types shows no meaningful concentration. Because the recent opportunities tagged to this code do not represent the work the code purports to describe, business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for procurement purposes and verify with issuing bodies directly if surgical tissue repair services or orthopedic implant procedures are under consideration.
