UNSPSC 85662504: Transfer right ankle tendon, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to transfer right ankle tendon, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0LXS4ZZ

UNSPSC 85662504 Transfer right ankle tendon, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope — a specific orthopedic surgical procedure — does not match the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local RFPs and RFQs. The five opportunities posted in the source (dated February through May 2026) span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve ankle tendon transfer procedures or percutaneous endoscopic orthopedic work.

The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the state and local procurement databases or use of this Commodity code as a catch-all for health services work that does not fit narrower clinical procedure codes. No issuing body has posted multiple opportunities under this code, and the geographic spread includes Georgia, Florida, and California, but that distribution reflects the broader health services solicitations rather than activity specific to ankle surgery or orthopedic procedures. Firms pursuing state and local health services contracts should verify code assignment during pre-bid Q&A cycles; this code as currently indexed does not serve as a reliable signal for orthopedic surgery procurement activity.
