This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of right hand muscle, percutaneous 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 0K5C3ZZ

UNSPSC 85653544 Destruction of right hand muscle, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's nominal medical procedure scope does not align with the actual solicitations tagged to it in state and local databases. Recent opportunities posted under this code are instead capturing occupational and administrative health services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and youth detention healthcare — none of which represent surgical muscle destruction procedures. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error or a systematic miscoding of health services opportunities into this procedure-specific code.

The six recent state and local opportunities tied to this code reflect instead a broad health services and benefits contracting environment spanning state transportation departments, county human resources and probation systems, city retirement offices, and regional health systems. The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSF) is procuring occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with a pre-bid conference scheduled for August 31, 2026 and proposal due date of October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office is requesting independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations with a $750,000 maximum five-year contract ceiling and October 16, 2026 deadline; the County of Santa Clara Health System is establishing a multiple-award qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across thirteen health professional categories with an October 7, 2026 response date; and Collier County is issuing an RFP for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees with historical annual pharmacy spending of $8.7 million. Given the code's narrow procedure-specific definition and the generic health administration and staffing work actually being posted, vendors should treat this code as an unreliable indicator of state and local opportunity and verify commodity classification independently before pursuing solicitations.
