UNSPSC 85662715: Excision of left ankle tendon, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left ankle tendon, 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 0LBT4ZZ

UNSPSC 85662715 Excision of left ankle tendon, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal scope. The recent opportunities posted against this code—inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction—span healthcare administration, managed care, and occupational health but do not represent surgical procedure procurement in the traditional sense. State and local governments appear to be using this code to classify broader healthcare service contracts, particularly jail and prison health services, county pharmacy management, virtual care platforms, and mental health workforce support, rather than billing for specific orthopedic surgical procedures like ankle tendon excision. The issuing bodies include county correctional facilities, county benefits administrators, county health commissions, and fire departments across multiple states.

The geographic spread includes Georgia (Muscogee County Prison), Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), and California (San Mateo County), with no clear concentration in a single jurisdiction. Representative recent opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison, posted April 15, 2026, with proposals due May 15, 2026; Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services covering approximately 7,200 members with an estimated historical annual spend of $8.7 million, posted April 9, 2026; and Monroe County's RFP 628 for Virtual Primary and Urgent Care Services for 2,300 county members, due April 16, 2026. The mismatch between the code's specific surgical procedure name and the healthcare service contracts actually posted suggests either coding inconsistency in the state and local databases or a broader interpretation of the code's scope by issuing authorities that warrants clarification before pursuing opportunities under this classification.
