This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement head and neck tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach.

UNSPSC 85661702 Supplement head and neck tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are buying under this designation. Recent state and local procurement activity tagged with this code centers on occupational and disability-related medical services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve surgical tendon supplementation with tissue substitutes.

The mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the tagged opportunities suggests either a systematic cataloging error or misalignment in how this code is applied in state and local procurement systems. The Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix sought independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth (071626BNM, due September 25, 2026). The County of Santa Clara Health System established a vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary categories including diagnostic imaging, respiratory care, and surgical services (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). These opportunities span state departments, county jurisdictions, and city procurement offices across Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida, but none involve surgical procedures, tissue substitutes, or orthopedic supplementation. Code 85661702 shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope.
