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 0L8S4ZZ

UNSPSC 85662752 Division of right ankle tendon, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities assigned to this code — independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — involve medical service administration, benefits consulting, occupational health compliance, and clinical staffing placement. None of these solicitations actually concern surgical procedures on the ankle or any orthopedic surgery. The code appears to have been applied as a catch-all category for health services procurement rather than as a precise procedure descriptor; state and local agencies do not procure surgical procedures themselves, but instead procure health plan administration, occupational health services, and healthcare workforce support.

The issuing bodies span a geographic and jurisdictional range typical of municipal and county healthcare administration: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Recent RFPs and RFQs include the City of Phoenix's October 16, 2026 deadline for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations (maximum $750,000 over five years), Long Beach's October 7, 2026 RFP for surgical benefit carve-out network administration for municipal employees (contract start April 1, 2027), Washington State Ferries' October 9, 2026 RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 statewide locations (two-year term with five one-year extension options, announcement October 20, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's October 7, 2026 RFQ for temporary clinical staffing across thirteen ancillary categories (non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle with five-year shelf life). This code shows little decision-relevant activity for vendors whose business is surgical procedures or orthopedic services; the tag appears to be a data classification error rather than a signal of surgical procurement demand in state and local health administration.
