This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right lower leg tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach.

UNSPSC 85662222 Replacement of right lower leg tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the most recent opportunities posted under this code involve medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs — none of which constitute replacement tendon procedures or surgical implants. The mismatch suggests the code has been applied inconsistently or the opportunities have been mistagged in the source system.

Recent activity includes the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations (due October 9, 2026), Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and $8.7 million in historical annual pharmacy spending (due April 9, 2026), the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ establishing a temporary health professional staffing vendor pool across 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department's RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (due September 25, 2026). Issuing bodies include state departments, county health systems and human resources divisions, city retirement offices, and special district authorities. Geographic spread spans Arizona, Washington, California, Florida, and Texas. The code shows little relevant recent activity directly aligned to its stated scope.
