UNSPSC 85724744 Removal of autologous tissue substitute from lumbar vertebral disc, open approach is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local procurement activity, shows little relevant alignment between the code's nominal scope and the medical services actually being solicited. The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services — none of which directly concern removal of autologous tissue substitute from lumbar vertebral disc. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county government (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and health systems (Santa Clara Health System). No pattern of repeat buyers or geographic concentration emerges from the available record.

Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, responses due October 9, 2026) covering baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry terminals, the City of Phoenix's independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations (RTMRFP26001, responses due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, responses due October 7, 2026). Activity is distributed across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no dominant jurisdiction. The code's nominal scope does not match the medical administration and staffing services currently being procured under it, suggesting either miscoding by issuing bodies or structural misalignment between the taxonomy and current state and local procurement practice.
