This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to division of right thorax tendon, percutaneous 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 0L8C3ZZ

UNSPSC 85661340, Division of right thorax tendon, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that represents a specific surgical procedure classification. However, the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with the code's nominal scope. The opportunities instead reflect health and human services procurement across multiple domains: disability medical evaluation services, surgical and medical procedure benefit carve-outs through Centers of Excellence networks, occupational medical surveillance programs, emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code span city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal governments (Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County), and health systems (Santa Clara County Health System). The work being bought is administrative health services contracting, medical benefits management, and staffing coordination—not surgical procedures themselves.

The recent activity is geographically dispersed across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington State, with no single jurisdiction dominating the pipeline. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, RFP, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years); the City of Long Beach's request for surgical benefit carve-out programs (HR26753, RFP, due October 7, 2026); and the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). The code assignment appears misaligned with actual procurement activity; the code's clinical specificity does not reflect the administrative, benefits-management, and staffing-services focus of the posted solicitations.
