UNSPSC 85762933: Removal of autologous tissue substitute from upper back, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of autologous tissue substitute from upper back, 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 0WPK07Z

UNSPSC 85762933, Removal of autologous tissue substitute from upper back, open approach, is a Commodity code that bears no meaningful relationship to the state and local procurement activity currently posted under it. The code appears nominally to classify a surgical procedure, yet the recent solicitations tagged with this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent disability medical evaluation, surgical carve-out benefit programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve removal of autologous tissue substitutes or surgical procedures of that specificity. The mismatch between the code's clinical-procedure name and the actual work being solicited suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a data-integrity issue in the underlying taxonomy assignment.

The issuing bodies posting under this code represent a geographic and institutional mix: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Recent opportunities include the Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 (a $750,000 five-year contract for disability medical record review and physician coordination), the Long Beach RFP for surgical carve-out benefit programs due October 7, 2026, and the Washington State Ferries' RFP for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference scheduled for August 31, 2026. Given the pronounced disconnect between the code's stated scope and the work actually being solicited, this code should not be relied upon as a filtering criterion for business development in medical device, surgical implant, or tissue-substitute removal services.
