UNSPSC 85661127: Resection of left thorax tendon, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of left thorax tendon, 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 0LTD0ZZ

UNSPSC 85661127 Resection of left thorax tendon, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no material recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal clinical scope. The five most recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for mental health peer workers, and fire department medical director services — none of which involve surgical resection procedures or thoracic tendon repair. The mismatch between the code's procedural description and the actual opportunities suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or that the code has been repurposed to capture healthcare services procurement broadly rather than the specific surgical intervention the code nominally describes.

Activity is geographically scattered across Florida (Collier and Monroe counties), Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government), California (San Mateo County and Santa Monica Fire Department), with no concentration in any single state or region. Recent solicitations include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP for inmate medical and pharmacy services (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 members (due April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services (due April 16, 2026). Issuers range across county boards of commissioners, consolidated city governments, county health departments, and municipal fire departments. Without clear alignment between the code's clinical specification and the health services procurement it ostensibly tags, this code presents a tracking and targeting risk for business development — vendors pursuing healthcare services contracts should verify actual UNSPSC tagging in live RFP documents rather than assume consistency with this code's nominal definition.
