UNSPSC 85661108: Supplement left abdomen tendon with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left abdomen tendon 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 0LUG0JZ

UNSPSC 85661108 Supplement left abdomen tendon with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that addresses a specific surgical procedure for abdominal tendon repair using synthetic materials. However, the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code show no alignment with this surgical service. Instead, the opportunities reflect procurement of healthcare administration and management services—inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director oversight. The mismatch between the code's nominal clinical scope and the actual solicitation activity suggests either a classification error in how opportunities were tagged or that the code is not being used for its intended surgical procedure procurement by state and local buyers.

The source records no recent opportunities that match the surgical procedure scope defined by UNSPSC 85661108. The issuing bodies represented—Muscogee County Prison (Georgia), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), Monroe County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), San Mateo County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (California), and Santa Monica Fire Department (California)—are procuring administrative healthcare services and employment-based medical benefits management, not surgical implants or operative procedures. Given the absence of relevant recent activity under this code, it does not present a meaningful pursuit opportunity for vendors offering tendon repair implants or surgical supplies.
