This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of chest wall with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0W080KZ

UNSPSC 85761962 Alteration of chest wall with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its stated scope. The six most recent state and local opportunities posted under this code involve medical surveillance and occupational health services (Washington State Ferries occupational medical examinations), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System), disability medical evaluation services (Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards), surgical benefits carve-out programs (City of Long Beach), and emergency medical services for youth in custody (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). None of these solicitations match the code's clinical descriptor—alteration of chest wall with nonautologous tissue substitute via open surgical approach. The code appears to have been incorrectly assigned to administrative health services, benefits administration, and occupational medicine procurement rather than to surgical implant or tissue reconstruction services.

The issuing bodies span city pension offices, county health departments, county governments, state transportation agencies, and regional health systems, with no dominant repeat buyer evident in the recent block. Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, Washington, and a multi-location operational footprint within Washington State (14 Ferries terminals). Given the mismatch between the code's surgical procedure name and the administrative and occupational health services actually being procured, this code does not provide actionable signal for firms in surgical services, implant distribution, or tissue reconstruction—the categories this code nominally describes.
