UNSPSC 85662432 Extirpation of matter from right lower leg tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities associated with this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical record review and independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-outs for employee health plans, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these activities involve orthopedic surgical procedures or tendon extraction. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure on the right lower leg — does not match what state and local governments are actually buying under this classification, suggesting a data-quality issue in how the opportunities were tagged to the code rather than legitimate procurement activity in orthopedic surgery services.

The solicitations themselves span diverse issuing bodies including city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal employee benefits programs (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county human resources divisions (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and county health systems (County of Santa Clara), with activity concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. No pattern of repeat buyers or geographic concentration emerges from these records, and the medical and administrative services being solicited bear no meaningful relationship to the procedural-code designation. The code appears inactive for its stated purpose in state and local procurement.
