UNSPSC 85782540: Alteration of right knee 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 knee 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 0Y0F37Z

UNSPSC 85782540 Alteration of right knee region with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal descriptor reflects a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show no alignment with orthopedic surgery procurement. Instead, the code appears in use for occupational health and disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management administration, youth detention healthcare coordination, and temporary health professional staffing services — none of which involve knee surgery or tissue substitution. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office is requesting independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations; the City of Long Beach is seeking surgical benefit carve-out management for Centers of Excellence networks covering multiple procedure types including knee and orthopedic surgery; the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) is procuring occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department is issuing an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; Collier County is seeking pharmacy benefit management administration; and Santa Clara County Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. The issuing bodies are state departments, county health systems, county human resources and benefits offices, and county probation departments — a mix of benefits administration, occupational health, detention healthcare, and clinical staffing procurement rather than surgical procedure vendors.

Geographic activity spans Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach, Collier County, Santa Clara County), Washington State (WSDOT statewide ferries operation with 14 locations), and Texas (Harris County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), WSDOT's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 Washington ferry locations (due October 9, 2026, two-year term with optional five additional one-year extensions, cost-based evaluation with 40 percent pricing weight), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs (due October 7, 2026, anticipated award January–March 2027 with April 1, 2027 go-live for approximately 3,800 enrolled employees and retirees), Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026, three-year initial term with two optional one-year renewals, approximately $8.7 million annual historical spend), and Santa Clara County Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive multiple-award vendor pool with no guaranteed work volume). The mismatch between the code's surgical-procedure descriptor and the actual scope of recent opportunities suggests this code is either misapplied to these procurements or reflects a data-quality issue in the source system.
