UNSPSC 85661001: Release left abdomen tendon, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release left abdomen tendon, external 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 0LNGXZZ

UNSPSC 85661001 Release left abdomen tendon, external approach (Commodity) shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not match the recent opportunities posted under this classification. Recent solicitations tagged to this code are requesting independent medical evaluation services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing pools, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for employee health plans, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these services involve the abdominal surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies span diverse jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (on behalf of pension boards), the Washington State Department of Transportation, the City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. The geographic spread includes Arizona, Washington, California, Florida, and Texas.

The code shows no recent opportunities that substantively relate to surgical abdomen-tendon release procedures. The Phoenix RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) seeks independent medical evaluation and disability record summarization for public safety pension determinations. The WSDOT solicitation (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) requests occupational medical surveillance across 14 Washington State ferry locations with pre-bid scheduled for August 31, 2026. The City of Long Beach RFP (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) seeks surgery benefit carve-out management for Centers of Excellence networks covering knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures—not abdominal tendon procedures. This code appears to be a miscoding artifact in the source material rather than an active procurement category for state and local surgical services.
