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 0LQT3ZZ

UNSPSC 85662403 Repair left ankle tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its nominal surgical-procedure scope. The code appears largely mismatched to the recent opportunities posted under it. State and local agencies are soliciting medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, specialty surgical networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency/inpatient care for detained youth — none of which involve ankle tendon repair procedures. The disconnect suggests either systematic miscoding in procurement systems or a data artifact that does not reflect genuine demand for ankle tendon repair services under this code.

Recent opportunities span diverse issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations), the City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (occupational medical surveillance), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty care for detained youth), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing pool). Geographic activity is concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, though the opportunities are too varied in service type to indicate genuine sectoral concentration under this code. No recent solicitations directly soliciting ankle tendon repair procedures, related orthopedic surgical services, or percutaneous surgical technique vendors appear in the posted opportunities. Vendors should confirm with procurement offices that opportunities tagged under this code align with their actual service offerings before investing in proposal development.
