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 0LXQ0ZZ

UNSPSC 85662106 Transfer right knee tendon, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes orthopedic surgical procedures, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show minimal alignment with that scope. The opportunities include inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county correctional facility, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services for county members, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve orthopedic surgery or knee tendon transfer procedures. The code appears to be a mislabeling or administrative error in the procurement systems that tagged these solicitations, rather than a genuine market signal for the surgical procedure the code nominally describes.

State and local governments posting under this code span county-level agencies across multiple states: Muscogee County, Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department Purchasing Division); Collier County, Florida; Monroe County, Florida; San Mateo County, California; and the City of Santa Monica, California. The actual buying activity—when interpreted against what is realistically being procured—includes comprehensive medical and pharmacy services management, virtual care platforms, behavioral health support, and EMS medical direction, primarily through RFPs with response dates ranging from April 2026 through July 2025. Given the fundamental mismatch between the code's surgical-procedure designation and the actual scope of these healthcare administration and services solicitations, this code shows little actionable activity for vendors pursuing orthopedic surgical supplies or services. Business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC coding for healthcare services and administration contracting opportunities rather than relying on this category.
