UNSPSC 85762156: Alteration of chest wall with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of chest wall with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0W083KZ

UNSPSC 85762156 Alteration of chest wall with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's clinical specificity — a surgical procedure involving chest wall reconstruction with synthetic materials — does not align with the recent opportunities posted under this classification. The six opportunities identified in the recent posting record span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical center-of-excellence networks, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services. None of these represent procurement of the surgical procedure itself or related implantable devices or tissue substitutes that the code nominally describes.

The mismatch suggests either a coding error in the state and local procurement database or that this Commodity code is used inconsistently across issuing bodies. The opportunities originate from Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), spanning city governments, county health systems, state transportation departments, and county procurement offices. Given the absence of any opportunity actually matching the code's surgical and device scope, business development professionals should verify with individual issuing bodies whether future opportunities related to chest wall reconstruction procedures or tissue substitute products will be posted under this code, or whether corrections to the taxonomy alignment are anticipated.
