UNSPSC 85661140: Replacement of right abdomen tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right abdomen tendon with nonautologous tissue 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 0LRF0KZ

UNSPSC 85661140 Replacement of right abdomen tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal medical-procedure scope and recent state and local solicitation activity. The code's clinical specificity — a surgical replacement of abdominal tendon using synthetic tissue — does not align with the work actually being procured under it in the current market. Recent opportunities tagged to this code include independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical carve-out benefits for employee health plans, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these procurements involve abdominal tendon replacement surgery or related surgical procedures.

This code shows little relevant recent activity grounded in its stated scope. The most substantive recent opportunities — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services (RFP RTMRFP26001, response due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance services (RFP RFP20260825, response due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle (RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, response due October 7, 2026) — represent pre-qualification, administrative medical services, and staffing administration rather than surgical procedures. The Phoenix and WSDOT opportunities are the most recent substantive procurements, but they reflect disability benefit support and workplace health compliance, not clinical surgical delivery. Firms pursuing procurement opportunities in this code should verify directly with issuing bodies that the UNSPSC classification aligns with actual work scope before investing in proposal development.
