UNSPSC 85661452: Replacement of right trunk tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right trunk 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 0LR94KZ

UNSPSC 85661452 Replacement of right trunk tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code with no meaningful recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's clinical specificity—a precise surgical procedure using nonautologous tissue—does not align with the kinds of medical services state and local governments actually purchase through competitive solicitation. The recent opportunities tagged to this code instead reflect procurement of occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency care for detained youth—none of which involve tendon replacement procedures. State and local agencies procure these services for employee benefit administration, worker occupational health, detention facility operations, and health system staffing, not for named surgical interventions.

The mismatch between code and actual procurement activity is substantial enough to signal that this Commodity code does not represent a viable market segment for business development targeting state and local public bodies. The issuing bodies in the tagged opportunities—the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and Santa Clara County Health System—are soliciting medical services administration, staffing, and care coordination, not orthopedic or soft-tissue surgical procedures. If your firm pursues state and local medical or health services contracts, attention to the correct UNSPSC codes within occupational health (80-series), health professional services, or benefits administration would be more productive than tracking this surgical procedure code.
