This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left abdomen tendon, 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 0L5G4ZZ

UNSPSC 85661549 Destruction of left abdomen tendon, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that reflects a mismatch between the abstract taxonomy label and actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not involve surgical procedures or tissue destruction; instead, they encompass occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for youth in custody. The code appears to have been applied to health services and medical evaluation contracts that fall outside its nominal surgical scope. State and local issuers using this code span city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation departments, and county commissioners' procurement divisions across multiple jurisdictions.

The geographic spread includes Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications under PSPRS, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and proposals due October 16, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 state ferry locations, with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference scheduled August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for a qualified vendor pool providing temporary health professional staffing in 13 ancillary clinical categories, with proposals due October 7, 2026. The apparent misalignment between the code's nominal surgical content and the actual medical services and staffing being procured suggests this code carries limited relevance for contractors targeting state and local procurement under its stated taxonomy definition.
