UNSPSC 85662635: Replacement of right hip tendon with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right hip 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 0LRJ4JZ

UNSPSC 85662635 Replacement of right hip tendon with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not reflect orthopedic surgical procedures or medical devices. Instead, the indexed solicitations cover occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Ferries), independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs (City of Long Beach), specialty and emergency medical services for youth in detention (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System). None of these solicitations involve orthopedic implants, surgical equipment, or hip tendon replacement services. The code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure performed with a synthetic substitute via endoscopy—does not match the actual work state and local governments are requesting under this tag.

State and local procurement activity under this code does not support actionable opportunity signals. The mismatch between the code's clinical definition and the medical services and benefit administration work currently solicited suggests either miscoding in the source data or a classification error. Firms pursuing orthopedic device, surgical implant, or procedural services procurement should verify UNSPSC code alignment directly with issuing bodies or their procurement systems before investing in pursuit strategy. A review of the code's application across recent state and local notices would clarify whether this represents a systemic miscoding issue or a data anomaly.
