UNSPSC 85651506: Extirpation of matter from right hip muscle, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right hip muscle, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0KCN4ZZ

UNSPSC 85651506 Extirpation of matter from right hip muscle, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually buying under this classification. The recent solicitations tagged to this code do not involve surgical procedures or orthopedic interventions. Instead, the opportunities posted cover independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, and emergency/specialty medical services for youth in custody — none of which align with the code's nominal scope of percutaneous endoscopic hip surgery.

The mismatch between the code name and the posted opportunities suggests either a cataloging error in how state and local procurement offices have tagged these solicitations or a broader classification drift in how UNSPSC 85651506 is being used in practice. Absent clarification from the source on whether this misalignment is systematic or incidental, the code shows little decision-relevant activity for vendors pursuing work in percutaneous endoscopic orthopedic procedures at the state and local level. Buyers currently using this code designation are located in Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara Health System), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), but their actual service needs do not map to the code's stated commodity.
