UNSPSC 85662300: Tendons-lower extremities, open approach-part C

This class includes one or more of 19 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the tendons of the lower extremities with open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0L.

UNSPSC 85662300 Tendons-lower extremities, open approach-part C is a Class code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally addresses orthopedic medical devices or surgical services related to lower-extremity tendon repair, but the five most recent opportunities tagged to this code in the source—inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction—bear no meaningful connection to tendon repair or lower-extremity orthopedic procedures. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding at the source or that this particular code does not reflect actual current state and local buying patterns in this commodity family.

Because the opportunities in the source do not address the work this code is intended to classify, no reliable characterization of issuing-body mix, geographic spread, or representative recent solicitations can be drawn from them. A business development professional evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for state and local procurement purposes based on available recent data.
