UNSPSC 85662445: Excision of left upper leg tendon, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left upper leg 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 0LBM3ZZ

UNSPSC 85662445 Excision of left upper leg tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with orthopedic or surgical services. The five opportunities on record — inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county prison, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care for county members, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services — span correctional healthcare, pharmacy administration, telehealth, behavioral health, and emergency medical oversight. None involves surgical procurement or the procedural scope the code name suggests. The issuing bodies include county governments (Muscogee County, Collier County, Monroe County, Santa Mateo County, and Santa Monica Fire Department), reflecting typical county healthcare and human services procurement patterns rather than orthopedic surgery sourcing.

The geographic spread covers Georgia, Florida (two counties), California, and California again, with no concentration in any single state. Representative recent opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 (posted April 15, 2026, due May 15, 2026) for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison with a current monthly cost of $95,537.71 and an RFP from Collier County (posted April 9, 2026, also due April 9, 2026) for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees with historical annual spending of approximately $8.7 million. The code appears to carry a classification error or systematic mismatch — no sourcing activity under this code relates to tendon excision or surgical procedures. Firms pursuing orthopedic or surgical service procurement should verify the applicable UNSPSC codes through their customers' RFP language rather than rely on this code's nominal title.
