UNSPSC 85772256: Alteration of left axilla with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of left axilla with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0X050KZ

UNSPSC 85772256 Alteration of left axilla with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that exhibits a significant mismatch between its clinical nomenclature and actual state and local procurement activity. The code's abstract name refers to a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code do not solicit surgical axillary alteration services; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation, pharmacy benefit management, surgical center-of-excellence networks, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention medical services. This misalignment suggests either a data classification error in how opportunities were tagged or that the code is not being used in practice to describe its nominal scope. No recent solicitations actually procure axillary surgery or related tissue-substitute procedures from state or local buyers.

The issuing bodies across the unrelated opportunities include county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), municipalities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county commissioners' offices (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. Given the absence of opportunities aligned with the code's stated clinical scope, this code does not represent a viable business development target for firms seeking state and local procurement work in surgical procedures or tissue substitutes.
