This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left foot 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 0LRW4JZ

UNSPSC 85662602 Replacement of left foot tendon with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not align with the state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged to this code describe independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve tendon replacement surgery or the orthopedic implant and surgical services that the code itself describes. State and local procurement does not regularly or directly procure individual surgical procedures as line-item commodities; the mismatch between the code's clinical procedure name and the actual work being bought suggests either a cataloging error in the underlying data or a systematic misalignment between UNSPSC's medical-procedure taxonomy and how state and local agencies classify healthcare contracting.

The issuing bodies in the recent-opportunities block span multiple jurisdictions—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System—but none of the work they are soliciting falls within the code's stated scope. If your firm pursues surgical-implant or orthopedic-procedure supply, this code as tagged in current state and local activity provides no reliable signal of procurement opportunity. Verify the correct UNSPSC classification for healthcare-related work your firm actually delivers before investing business-development resources against this code's posting activity.
