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 0KN60ZZ

UNSPSC 85651811 Release left shoulder muscle, open approach is a Commodity code that maps to surgical procedure codes but shows little meaningful alignment with state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code involve inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director services—none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures or shoulder muscle release operations. The code appears to be a clinical taxonomy entry misapplied to administrative healthcare contracting, and the state and local opportunities recorded against it do not reflect the surgical scope the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies in the recent records span county health systems and correctional agencies: Columbus Consolidated Government (Muscogee County Prison medical and pharmacy services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management for employees and retirees), Monroe County Board of County Commissioners (virtual primary and urgent care), San Mateo County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (peer support for behavioral health workers), and Santa Monica Fire Department (medical director services). Geographic spread includes Georgia, Florida, California, and California again. The opportunities posted between February and April 2026 with response dates ranging from April through July 2025 indicate ongoing procurement activity, but none of the work being solicited—claims processing, virtual care platforms, peer support coordination, or medical direction oversight—tracks to the surgical procedure the code nominally describes. For firms pursuing work in correctional health services, county employee health plans, or behavioral health administration, this code's current tagging offers little signal value.
