UNSPSC 85662508: Transfer right lower leg tendon, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to transfer right lower leg 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 0LXN4ZZ

UNSPSC 85662508 Transfer right lower leg tendon, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this designation reflect occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out benefits for employee health plans, specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures or the clinical service line the code nominally covers. The mismatch suggests either misclassification in the underlying procurement databases or data quality issues at the source level.

The geographic spread of the recent opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County), with activity distributed across city governments, county systems, state departments, and regional health authorities. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) to support disability determinations for public safety pension applicants; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) requiring board-certified occupational physicians across 14 ferry system locations; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Because the code's stated scope does not match the actual work being purchased, this code should not be treated as a reliable procurement signal for the orthopedic surgical procedure it nominally describes.
