UNSPSC 85723810: Removal of autologous tissue substitute from left ankle joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of autologous tissue substitute from left ankle 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 0SPG37Z

UNSPSC 85723810 Removal of autologous tissue substitute from left ankle joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitation activity, shows no alignment between its clinical procedure nomenclature and the work state and local governments actually procure. The code's title describes a specific surgical extraction procedure, yet the six opportunities posted under this code since late July 2026 seek independent medical evaluation services, health plan surgical carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve removal of autologous tissue or ankle-joint procedures. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a data-tagging error in the underlying procurement records. Issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health benefits administrators (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington), county probation authorities (Harris County), county benefits consortiums (Collier County), and regional health systems (Santa Clara County).

Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) seeks baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry-system locations, performed by physicians board-certified in occupational medicine. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covers disability benefit record summaries and examination scheduling for approximately 75 annual public safety pension claims over a five-year, $750,000 term. The County of Santa Clara Health System is building a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing—audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, and surgical services among others—with proposals due October 7, 2026 and no guaranteed work volume. Given that the code's procedural scope bears no substantive relation to the medical administration, health professional staffing, and occupational health services actually being solicited, the code shows little relevant recent activity for vendors pursuing work aligned with its stated clinical definition.
