UNSPSC 85782958: Alteration of right lower extremity with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of right lower extremity 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 0Y090KZ

UNSPSC 85782958 Alteration of right lower extremity with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its clinical nomenclature and the actual scope of state and local procurement activity. The recent solicitations tagged under this code do not involve surgical alteration procedures or tissue substitution; instead, they reflect purchasing for occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical carve-out benefits coordination, and emergency medical services for detained youth. The code's narrow clinical descriptor does not align with what jurisdictions are actually buying—a range of healthcare administrative, diagnostic, and staffing services rather than surgical procedures. State and local issuers using this code include county health systems, county commissioners' offices, state transportation departments, city retirement offices, and county juvenile probation departments, reflecting the diverse healthcare procurement landscape across municipal and county government.

Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no single jurisdiction dominating recent solicitation volume. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years) supporting disability pension determinations; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits coordination (HR26753, due October 7, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code exhibits substantial recent activity but carries procurement-search risk due to the disconnect between the UNSPSC clinical label and the administrative healthcare services actually being solicited—firms pursuing opportunities under this code should verify each opportunity's actual scope before investing proposal effort.
