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 0LNT4ZZ

UNSPSC 85662651 Release left ankle tendon, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work actually being solicited under it by state and local bodies. The recent opportunities tagged with this code span jail and prison medical services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures on the ankle or any surgical intervention. The code's name appears to be a clinical procedure classification misapplied to healthcare administration and service contracting, creating a significant mismatch between the code's ostensible scope and the purchasing activity it is tagged to cover. State and local procurement offices are using this code to classify healthcare service delivery contracts rather than surgical supplies or procedures.

The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies including county governments (Muscogee County, Georgia; Collier County, Florida; Monroe County, Florida; San Mateo County, California) and a municipal fire department (Santa Monica Fire Department, California), with contract values ranging from $580,000 for a three-year peer support pilot to approximately $8.7 million annually for pharmacy benefit management. Representative recent solicitations include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison, due May 15, 2026; Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 members, due April 9, 2026; and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members, due April 16, 2026. The geographic spread includes Georgia, Florida, and California. Because this code shows no relevant recent activity aligned with its stated orthopedic surgical scope, firms evaluating pursuit decisions should treat this code as inactive for state and local healthcare service contracting purposes and verify the correct UNSPSC classification for any healthcare administration or medical services opportunities.
