UNSPSC 85662126: Supplement left knee tendon with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left knee tendon with synthetic substitute, 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 0LUR0JZ

UNSPSC 85662126 Supplement left knee tendon with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—orthopedic surgical implants and procedures—does not match the opportunities posted under this code number. Recent solicitations tagged to this code encompass occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care-out programs for government employee health plans, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these services involves orthopedic implant procurement, surgical supply contracting, or the acquisition of synthetic knee tendon substitutes that the code name describes.

The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the issuing bodies' tagging systems or a fundamental disconnect between the code definition and its actual use in state and local procurement. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, but the opportunities are unrelated to the code's intended scope. If your firm pursues orthopedic implant supply, joint-replacement device distribution, or surgical-implant management for healthcare delivery networks, this code does not currently reflect relevant procurement activity; you should verify current opportunities directly with issuing health systems and state procurement offices rather than relying on UNSPSC 85662126 as a search filter.
