This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left lower arm and wrist muscle with autologous tissue substitute, 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 0KUB47Z

UNSPSC 85653633 Supplement left lower arm and wrist muscle with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted against this code show no alignment with that scope. Instead, the opportunities filed under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for public safety retirement determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty medical services for detained youth, and general health plan administration. None of these solicitations involve orthopedic tissue supplementation or endoscopic surgery. The issuing bodies include state agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and probation departments (Santa Clara Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County), municipal retirement and employee benefit offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), and special-purpose health consortia (Collier County Health Care Consortium). This code appears to have been applied incorrectly to medical services and health plan administration solicitations that fall outside its nominal commodity definition.

The recent opportunities show activity across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington with response dates concentrated between October 7 and October 20, 2026. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system employees (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees (HR26753, due October 7, 2026). The code assignment mismatch suggests this commodity code does not meaningfully capture state and local procurement activity in medical services or employee benefit administration, and pursuit decisions should rely on direct solicitation monitoring rather than this code classification.
