This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right hip tendon with nonautologous tissue 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 0LRJ4KZ

UNSPSC 85662634 Replacement of right hip tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows a misalignment between its nominal clinical scope and the state and local contract opportunities actually posted under this code. Recent solicitations are soliciting medical evaluation, occupational surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out services — none of which match the orthopedic surgical procedure the code nominally describes. State and local procurement systems occasionally tag opportunities with codes that do not reflect the work being purchased, and this code appears to be an example of that pattern. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation agencies, county juvenile probation departments, and county commissioners' offices — a mix spanning municipal, county, state, and special-purpose health and human services jurisdictions.

The recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas, with no dominant geographic concentration. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations (due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive multiple-award). The code shows little relevant activity aligned with its stated clinical definition and may be unsuitable for targeting in orthopedic surgical contracting.
