UNSPSC 85661413: Supplement left thorax tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left thorax tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0LUD4KZ

UNSPSC 85661413 Supplement left thorax tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not match the scope of recent state and local contract opportunities. The code describes a specific surgical procedure—tissue supplementation of the left thorax tendon via minimally invasive endoscopic approach—but the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it procure occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for youth detention. These opportunities do not involve surgical procedures or tissue-based medical implants. The code shows no relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal clinical scope.

The mismatch between code definition and actual procurement activity signals that the code is either incorrectly assigned by the issuing bodies or is not a meaningful signal for business development targeting state and local medical contracting. The issuing bodies pursuing opportunities tagged to this code—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System—are buying administrative medical services, staffing, and benefit management rather than surgical supplies or orthopedic implants. Practitioners pursuing this code should verify actual opportunity scope independently before committing resources to pursuit.
