UNSPSC 85662440: Excision of right ankle tendon, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right ankle 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 0LBS3ZZ

UNSPSC 85662440 Excision of right ankle tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment between its clinical procedural scope and the state and local contract opportunities currently posted under it. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure — excision of ankle tendon via percutaneous approach — yet the recent solicitations tagged to it encompass inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care delivery, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction. None of these opportunities involve orthopedic or podiatric surgery, and none reference ankle tendon procedures or percutaneous surgical techniques. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source data or a systemic tagging problem at the issuing bodies. State and local procurement activity under this code does not reflect its stated commodity description.

The source records five opportunities posted between February and April 2026 across Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government's Muscogee County Prison division), California (San Mateo County Health), and California (Santa Monica Fire Department). The issuing bodies represent county commissions, a consolidated city-county government, and a fire department — all purchasing health care services or administration rather than surgical procedures. Because the opportunities are fundamentally unrelated to the code's clinical scope, they provide no decision-relevant signal about actual procurement demand for ankle tendon excision services or related surgical commodities under UNSPSC 85662440.
