UNSPSC 85661118 Supplement right thorax tendon with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually buying under this classification. Recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical center-of-excellence carve-outs, specialty medical staffing, and emergency healthcare services for youth in custody — none of which involve tendon supplementation or surgical orthopedic procedures. The code shows a material mismatch between its nominal scope and the services solicited by state and local agencies.

The issuing bodies posting opportunities tagged to this code include county pension boards (Phoenix Retirement Office on behalf of pension systems), county health departments and hospital procurement offices (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Santa Clara Health System, Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county human resources and benefits divisions (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). Recent activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no clear concentration in any single state or region. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington locations (due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The UNSPSC taxonomy does not align with procurement intent, and vendors should verify code assignment through the issuing agency before pursuing opportunities listed under this Commodity code.
