UNSPSC 85662430: Extirpation of matter from right knee tendon, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right 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 0LCQ3ZZ

UNSPSC 85662430 Extirpation of matter from right knee tendon, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows minimal alignment between the code's clinical procedure name and the actual work state and local governments are procuring under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational and public-safety medical surveillance, disability medical record summarization and independent medical evaluations, surgical procedure carve-out network management, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and specialty hospital services for detained youth — none of which match the specific orthopedic procedure the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), city benefits departments (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara), county probation departments (Harris County), county human resources departments (Collier County), and regional transit authorities. This fragmentation suggests the code is either miscoded across these opportunities or serves as a catch-all placeholder for medical procurement rather than capturing actual knee-tendon surgery demand.

The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no concentration in any single state. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years) to support disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel, and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, two-year term with five one-year renewal options) covering baseline and periodic medical examinations across 14 ferry system locations. The Santa Clara County Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) establishes a five-year nonexclusive vendor pool across 13 ancillary clinical categories, with no guaranteed work volume. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to its nominal scope; business development activity should verify whether procurement professionals intend this code or whether opportunities are miscoded.
