UNSPSC 85662135: Supplement right lower leg tendon with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right lower leg 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 0LUN0JZ

UNSPSC 85662135 Supplement right lower leg tendon with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure for orthopedic tissue replacement, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it reflect procurement of medical services, health plan administration, occupational surveillance, and staffing — none of which involve the supply or performance of tendon supplementation or similar orthopedic surgical procedures. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source records or that this code sees little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.

Recent opportunities tagged under the code include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out program management (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department's RFI for specialty and emergency medical services (071626BNM, due September 25, 2026), Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). None of these solicitations procure orthopedic implants, surgical supplies, or procedure-related goods or services. Bidders should clarify code assignment with state and local procurement offices before investing in pursuit strategy under this classification.
