UNSPSC 85661400: Tendons-trunk torso, anterior posterior, percutaneous endoscopic approach-part A

This class includes one or more of 19 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the tendons of the anterior and posterior trunk and torso with percutaneous endoscopic approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0L.

UNSPSC 85661400 Tendons-trunk torso, anterior posterior, percutaneous endoscopic approach-part A is a Class code with little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope — a highly specialized surgical procedure classification — does not align with the recent opportunities tagged to it in state and local databases. Recent solicitations associated with this code span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the specific procedural intervention the code names.

The mismatch signals that this code sees minimal genuine procurement activity at the state and local level. Vendors pursuing work in occupational medicine, medical staffing, or employee benefit management would benefit from monitoring higher-level medical and health services codes rather than this Commodity-level procedure classification. The recent opportunities tagged here appear to reflect database tagging errors rather than actual state and local demand for the procedure specified.
