UNSPSC 85661348: Destruction of right trunk tendon, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of right trunk 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 0L593ZZ

UNSPSC 85661348 Destruction of right trunk tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit administration for public employees and benefit plan participants—none of which align with the musculoskeletal surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source data or that this code is being used as a catch-all for health services procurement by state and local purchasing offices, rather than for the specific clinical procedure indicated by the code name.

The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and procurement offices (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and municipal retirement and benefits administration offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years for disability benefit application support), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026, covering 14 statewide ferry locations), and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026, covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees with estimated historical annual pharmacy spending of $8.7 million). Given the disconnect between the code's title and the scope of work actually being procured, this code presents limited relevance for contractors in surgical or orthopedic service lines seeking to pursue state and local opportunities in their core practice area.
