This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left foot muscle with synthetic 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 0KUW0JZ

UNSPSC 85652726 Supplement left foot muscle with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code nominally describing a surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show no alignment with orthopedic or surgical implant procurement. Instead, the code has been tagged to solicitations for independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth — all administrative, clinical staffing, or benefits-management services rather than medical devices or implants. The issuing bodies are mixed: municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara), county human resources departments and health care consortia (Collier County), county probation departments (Harris County), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and municipal health benefits offices (City of Long Beach). No single jurisdiction appears more than once in the recent activity block.

Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations with a two-year base term and up to five one-year renewal options (due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for a surgical benefit carve-out program through Centers of Excellence (due October 7, 2026, with selection and negotiation targeted for January-March 2027 and go-live April 1, 2027), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification-based multiple-award RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive and no guaranteed volume). The code appears to be a classification mismatch; vendors pursuing state and local work in medical benefits administration, occupational health services, or clinical staffing should verify the actual service category with the issuing body rather than rely on this code's nominal scope.
