UNSPSC 85661123: Supplement right trunk tendon with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right trunk 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 0LU90JZ

UNSPSC 85661123 Supplement right trunk tendon with synthetic substitute, open approach (Commodity) shows minimal relevance to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure — implantation of synthetic material to supplement a right trunk tendon using an open surgical approach — yet the four recent opportunities indexed under it procure healthcare administration, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care, peer support services, and medical direction for emergency services. None of these opportunities involve orthopedic or general surgery, tendon repair, or synthetic implants. The mismatch reflects either a classification error in how these opportunities were tagged or a fundamental misalignment between the code's clinical scope and how state and local procurement systems are applying it.

The opportunities that are indexed here span issuing bodies including the Columbus Consolidated Government (Muscogee County, Georgia), Collier County (Florida), Monroe County (Florida), San Mateo County (California), and the Santa Monica Fire Department (California) — all healthcare or benefits administration rather than surgical services. No recent opportunities directly solicit tendon repair or synthetic orthopedic implants under this code. Until the tagging or the underlying code classification is corrected, this code should be treated as inactive for direct procurement targeting in state and local markets.
