UNSPSC 85662495: Destruction of left hip tendon, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left hip 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 0L5K3ZZ

UNSPSC 85662495, Destruction of left hip tendon, percutaneous approach (Commodity), does not align with the state and local opportunities presently tagged under this code. The recent solicitations in the tracking system—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical care carve-out benefits, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention medical care, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—concern procurement of healthcare administration, occupational health programs, benefit plan services, and clinical staffing. None of these opportunities involve orthopedic surgical procedures, hip tendon destruction, or percutaneous surgical intervention. The code appears to describe a specific clinical procedure rather than a procurable service or product line that state and local governments buy as standalone items or contracts.

The mismatch between the UNSPSC commodity designation and the actual opportunities flagged suggests either a systematic coding error in the state and local procurement system or category drift over time. No recent opportunities directly solicit hip tendon destruction procedures, percutaneous surgical services, or orthopedic procedure kits at the state, county, city, or health system level. Contractors evaluating this code should verify whether the underlying opportunities reflect genuine demand for orthopedic supply or service procurement before investing business development effort. If pursuing healthcare-adjacent spending, the representative opportunities—such as the City of Phoenix's independent medical evaluation RFP (due October 16, 2026) or the County of Santa Clara's temporary health professional staffing RFSQ (due October 7, 2026)—operate in adjacent but distinct procurement categories centered on services and staffing rather than procedure-specific procurement.
