UNSPSC 85662709 Extirpation of matter from left upper leg tendon, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that carries a surgical-procedure classification but does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually purchasing under this code identifier. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, specialty surgical carve-out benefit administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency youth detention healthcare services — none of which align with the orthopedic surgical procedure the code nominally describes. State and local issuing bodies applying this code include city retirement offices, county human resources divisions, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation departments, and county health systems. The mismatch between the code's surgical nomenclature and the diverse healthcare administrative and staffing services actually being procured suggests either systematic miscoding or use of this Commodity code as a catch-all for health services outside traditional clinical procedures.

The most recent opportunities cluster in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) is seeking independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit applications, with a five-year contract ceiling of $750,000 commencing February 3, 2027. The City of Long Beach (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) is requesting proposals for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence for its Anthem PPO plan covering approximately 3,800 active employees and retirees. The Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of Washington State Ferries (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), is procuring occupational medical surveillance with baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry locations, requiring board certification in occupational medicine and a two-year initial term with options to extend for five additional one-year periods. Collier County in Florida issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026, with historical annual spend of approximately $8.7 million). The code shows no recent activity that maps cleanly to the stated orthopedic surgical scope.
