UNSPSC 85773180: Alteration of right wrist region with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of right wrist region 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 0X0G0KZ

UNSPSC 85773180 Alteration of right wrist region with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure; however, recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code reflect healthcare administration, benefits management, and occupational health services—work bearing no relationship to orthopedic surgery or tissue-substitute procedures. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations; the City of Long Beach requested a surgical benefits carve-out program manager; the Washington State Department of Transportation sought occupational medical surveillance; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services; Collier County requested pharmacy benefit management; and Santa Clara County Health System established a vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. None of these opportunities involve the actual procedure named in the code.

State and local procurement activity under this code shows no meaningful volume or geographic concentration. The recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas across city, county, and state health authorities, but they reflect misclassification rather than genuine demand for wrist surgery with nonautologous tissue substitute. The code appears to capture administrative and contracting activity incidentally rather than representing a procurement category with substance. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for procurement pursuit purposes and verify correct UNSPSC classification when evaluating healthcare-related state and local opportunities.
