This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right ankle tendon with autologous tissue 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 0LRS07Z

UNSPSC 85662212 Replacement of right ankle tendon with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal scope. The recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code do not involve orthopedic surgery or tissue-replacement procedures; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the actual work being solicited suggests this code does not reflect how state and local government procurement systems classify or tag the health services and programs they are currently buying.

No state and local opportunities exist in the source material that match the specific surgical procedure named in UNSPSC 85662212. The tagged solicitations address administrative and occupational health functions, benefit program management, and staffing coordination rather than surgical interventions or implant procedures. Procurement professionals should verify whether this code is actively used by state and local issuing bodies or whether health services procurement in these jurisdictions is classified under different UNSPSC families or codes before investing time in pursuing opportunities under this Commodity classification.
