UNSPSC 85771916: Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left upper extremity, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left upper extremity, 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 0XP73KZ

UNSPSC 85771916 Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left upper extremity, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure code from medical taxonomy—does not match the substance of posted opportunities. Recent solicitations tagged under this code actually cover occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefit management, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. These are administrative and staffing services, not surgical removal procedures. The issuing bodies include counties (Collier County, Santa Clara County, Harris County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation); none of the opportunities describe procurement of the specific surgical intervention the code nominally names.

The geographic spread of the six opportunities posted since mid-August 2026 spans California, Florida, Arizona, Washington, and Texas. The Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) and the City of Phoenix's independent medical evaluation RFP (due October 16, 2026) are the most concrete recent solicitations, but both concern medical evaluation administration and oversight rather than the tissue-removal procedure the code describes. The source suggests the code is either miscategorized in the state and local procurement systems or applied inconsistently; there is no evidence of recent state or local purchasing activity for the specific surgical service this Commodity code nominally represents.
