UNSPSC 85662417: Release left knee tendon, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release left knee tendon, percutaneous 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 0LNR3ZZ

UNSPSC 85662417 Release left knee tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with that clinical scope. The five most recent solicitations tagged to this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for peer workers in behavioral health, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve orthopedic surgery or knee tendon procedures. The mismatch suggests either a systematic miscoding issue in the state and local procurement system or opportunistic vendor tagging unrelated to the code's actual commodity definition.

Activity under this code appears concentrated in Florida and Georgia, with additional California work. The issuing bodies are primarily county government units — Muscogee County (Georgia), Collier County (Florida), Monroe County (Florida), and San Mateo County (California) — supplemented by a city fire department (Santa Monica). Representative recent opportunities include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spending around $8.7 million (due April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members (due April 16, 2026). Given the absence of orthopedic-procedure-related solicitations and the prevalence of health plan administration and primary care service work, business development professionals should treat this code's recent activity as a procurement-system artifact rather than a reliable signal for orthopedic surgical contracting.
