UNSPSC 85741117: Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from vulva, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from vulva, 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 0UPM0KZ

UNSPSC 85741117 Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from vulva, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the most recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code involve medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical carve-out networks, youth detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve vulvar tissue substitute removal or match the code's clinical scope.

The mismatch between the code designation and actual buying activity suggests either a classification error in the source material or that this code sees negligible state and local procurement volume. State and local governments do purchase a broad range of healthcare and medical services through departments of health, county health systems, pension boards, and benefits administration offices, but the opportunities posted under this specific UNSPSC code do not reflect procurement aligned with its nominal definition. A business development professional evaluating this code should verify the correct UNSPSC classification for healthcare services of actual interest before committing resources to pursuit.
