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 0LNK3ZZ

UNSPSC 85662423 Release left hip tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure. The recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code do not reflect orthopedic surgery provision or procurement; instead, the opportunities solicited are occupational medical surveillance, pension disability medical evaluations, employee surgical benefit carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing. The code shows a fundamental mismatch between its procedural title and the work actually being transacted at state and local level. No recent state and local opportunities directly solicit release of left hip tendon procedures or similar orthopedic surgical services under this code.

The opportunities on file span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, issued by diverse public bodies including city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation authorities, and county commissioners. Given the misalignment between the code's nominal scope and the actual opportunities tagged to it, this code does not present a coherent procurement category for business development purposes. Firms evaluating this code should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing state and local opportunities or assume that these postings reflect metadata errors rather than deliberate procurement interest in hip tendon surgical procedures.
