UNSPSC 85661705: Resection of head and neck tendon, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of head and neck tendon, open 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 0LT00ZZ

UNSPSC 85661705 Resection of head and neck tendon, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure, yet state and local opportunities tagged under it are soliciting occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these represent head and neck tendon resection services. The mismatch between the code's clinical procedure name and the actual scope of recent solicitations suggests either systematic misclassification in the source data or that this code is not being used by state and local procurement offices for its intended procedure-level service. No opportunities in the recent-opportunities block directly solicit head and neck tendon resection services or related surgical procedures aligned with the code's defined scope.

The recent opportunities tagged under this code span multiple issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System—but none involve orthopedic or otolaryngologic surgical services. Given the consistent divergence between code designation and actual procurement activity, bidders should verify code alignment with each issuing body's intent before investment in pursuit activities. The code as currently tagged does not appear to be a reliable vehicle for capturing state and local demand for head and neck surgical services.
