This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left lower leg tendon, 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 0L5P0ZZ

UNSPSC 85662367 Destruction of left lower leg tendon, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of work being solicited by state and local governments under this classification. Recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability retirement medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, surgical procedure carve-outs for municipal employee health plans, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with orthopedic surgical procedure coding. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the state or local procurement systems or a fundamental classification misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy assignment and the services actually being purchased.

The recent opportunities show no coherent pattern under this code's nominal scope. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) is seeking independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations; the Washington State Department of Transportation (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) is procuring occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers; the City of Long Beach (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026) is sourcing surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees; and the County of Santa Clara Health System (RFSQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing. This code shows little relevant recent activity for orthopedic surgical services. Business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC classification directly with issuing bodies or procurement portals before pursuing opportunities tagged under this number.
