UNSPSC 85782924: Removal of autologous tissue substitute from left lower extremity, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of autologous tissue substitute from left lower extremity, 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 0YPB07Z

UNSPSC 85782924 Removal of autologous tissue substitute from left lower extremity, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with state and local government procurement activity. The code nominates a specific surgical procedure code, yet the recent opportunities posted under this UNSPSC tag concern occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve removal of autologous tissue substitutes or operative procedures at the lower extremity. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the scope of actual solicitations suggests that state and local procurement offices may be using this code as a catch-all for medical and healthcare services that do not fit elsewhere in the taxonomy, or tagging activity without close code-to-scope validation.

The recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies and geographies. The Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries) posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations statewide, due October 9, 2026. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, with proposals due October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years. The City of Long Beach issued an RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits under its Anthem Blue Cross PPO plan, due October 7, 2026. The County of Santa Clara Health System established a multiple-award qualified-vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026. Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency, inpatient, and specialty healthcare services for detained youth, due September 25, 2026. Collier County issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members, with historical annual spending near $8.7 million, due April 9, 2026. Activity concentrates in California, Washington, Arizona, and Florida, with no clear pattern suggesting that this code represents a reliable vehicle for pursuing state and local healthcare procurement.
