UNSPSC 85662538: Supplement left upper leg tendon with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left upper leg tendon with synthetic substitute, 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 0LUM4JZ

UNSPSC 85662538 Supplement left upper leg tendon with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows a mismatch between its nominal scope—a surgical procedure code naming a specific orthopedic intervention—and the recent state and local opportunities posted under it. The five most recent solicitations include independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefits carve-out programs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and inpatient healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management services, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these opportunities involve orthopedic surgery or tendon supplementation. The code appears to be misapplied in state and local procurement systems; no relevant opportunities matching the code's procedural definition are currently posted.

The issuing bodies in recent postings span city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal benefits administration (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County, Texas), county benefits coordination (Collier County, Florida), and county health systems (Santa Clara County, California). The geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Because the code itself does not align with the work being solicited, pursue opportunities under this taxonomy only after confirming with the source jurisdiction that the UNSPSC assignment is intentional rather than administrative error.
