UNSPSC 85771440: Alteration of right elbow region with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of right elbow region with autologous 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 0X0B37Z

UNSPSC 85771440 Alteration of right elbow region with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the medical services and administrative programs state and local governments are actually purchasing under this designation. Recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code target occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out programs, and youth detention medical services — none of which align with orthopedic surgical procedures involving autologous tissue substitutes at the elbow. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), and city human resources departments (City of Long Beach), indicating that the code classification does not accurately capture the scope of work or service categories being procured.

Recent opportunities show a geographic spread across Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations (due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations (due October 16, 2026 with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code assignment appears to be a data quality issue rather than a legitimate categorization of state and local procurement activity in this service domain.
