UNSPSC 85764556: Alteration of lower jaw with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of lower jaw with synthetic 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 0W053JZ

UNSPSC 85764556 (Alteration of lower jaw with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach), a Commodity code, shows no relevant state and local procurement activity in recent opportunities. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure on the mandible; however, the recent solicitations posted under this code—independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical carve-out benefits, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—do not involve jaw reconstruction or synthetic mandibular implants. The mismatch suggests a data-classification error rather than active state and local demand for this particular procedure.

The three opportunities most closely aligned with medical procurement (the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing RFQ due October 7, 2026) address administrative and workforce health functions—disability benefit determinations, occupational compliance monitoring, and ancillary clinical staffing—rather than surgical implant provision. Until state and local procurement offices properly classify surgical procedures and implant sourcing under this code, vendors in reconstructive surgery or oral and maxillofacial surgery implants should monitor the code for reclassification but not pursue opportunities currently tagged to it.
