UNSPSC 85661249: Destruction of left abdomen tendon, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left abdomen 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 0L5G0ZZ

UNSPSC 85661249 Destruction of left abdomen tendon, open approach is a Commodity code that represents a specific surgical procedure classification, but state and local government procurement activity under this code does not align with the code's medical taxonomy designation. The recent opportunities posted under this code reflect institutional procurement of medical evaluation, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and clinical staffing services—none of which involve surgical procedures or tissue destruction. This mismatch indicates that the code has been applied incorrectly to administrative healthcare contracting rather than procedural medical services, and the code does not reflect the actual scope of work being solicited by state and local buyers.

The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal health benefit programs (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county human resources and benefits consortiums (Collier County), and county health systems (County of Santa Clara). Recent opportunities posted under this code span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with activity concentrated in municipal and county-level health benefit administration and occupational health compliance. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 clinical specialties (due October 7, 2026). Given the misclassification of opportunities under a surgical procedure code, firms should verify the actual scope of work independently rather than relying on code assignment.
