UNSPSC 85661913: Extirpation of matter from head and neck tendon, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from head and neck 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 0LC04ZZ

UNSPSC 85661913 Extirpation of matter from head and neck tendon, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code with minimal alignment to actual state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not match the nature of work posted under this tag in recent state and local opportunities. Recent solicitations tagged to this code cover independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, occupational medical surveillance, surgical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence networks, pharmacy benefit management, emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody, and temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories. None of these services represent the surgical procedure named in the code's title. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, state transportation agencies, county health systems, county juvenile probation departments, and county commissioners' procurement divisions across multiple states—a diverse institutional mix with no single dominant buyer type or repeat purchaser under this specific code tag.

Geographic activity appears scattered across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington based on recent postings. The most recent representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services with proposals due October 16, 2026 at $750,000 maximum over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories, with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code appears to function as a catch-all or mislabeled category in these procurement systems rather than a coherent commodity grouping; vendors pursuing work under this code should verify the actual scope in each solicitation rather than relying on the code name as a guide.
