UNSPSC 85662134 Supplement right lower leg tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure; however, recent state and local procurement activity under this code bears no relation to orthopedic surgery or implantable medical devices. The opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit evaluations, surgical care management through centers of excellence, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These solicitations reflect administrative healthcare services, workforce medical programs, and benefit management rather than surgical supply or implantable-tissue procurement. The issuing bodies include county health systems, municipal retirement offices, state transportation agencies, county probation departments, and county benefits offices—a mix of administrative health programs and institutional medical operations rather than surgical facilities or orthopedic providers. The code appears misapplied to these opportunities and shows no recent activity aligned with its stated commodity scope.

Geographic activity spans California (Santa Clara County, Long Beach, Collier County), Arizona (Phoenix), Washington State (Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), reflecting scattered regional jurisdictions rather than concentrated purchasing patterns. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) supporting disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); the City of Long Beach RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits through centers of excellence (HR26753, due October 7, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFQ for temporary ancillary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code does not support meaningful pursue activity for vendors in surgical implants, orthopedic supplies, or tendon-repair materials.
