UNSPSC 85662969: Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from lower tendon, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from lower tendon, open 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 0LPY0KZ

UNSPSC 85662969, Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from lower tendon, open approach (Commodity), shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged to this code instead cover independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefits carve-out administration, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve the removal of tissue substitutes. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited suggests either a classification error in the source data or that this code does not track meaningful state and local procurement volume in the current market.

State and local procurement systems do not appear to use this Commodity code for routine buying. If your firm pursues medical services or benefits administration with public bodies, review the issuing bodies and geographies shown in the recent opportunities—the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County Health System—but verify the correct UNSPSC classification before bid planning, as the code itself is not a reliable signal for opportunity matching.
