UNSPSC 85663001: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lower tendon, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lower tendon, percutaneous 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 0LWY3KZ

UNSPSC 85663001 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lower tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—surgical revision of synthetic tissue implants—bears no meaningful relationship to the state and local contract opportunities recently tagged with it. The recent solicitation activity under this code reflects medical services procurement that departs substantially from the code's anatomical and procedural specificity: independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs through Centers of Excellence, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. State and local procurement offices are using this code to classify general medical services, evaluations, and staffing administration rather than orthopedic surgical procedures.

The issuing bodies are primarily large county and city governments and health systems, including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System. Geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no dominant concentration. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations with a $750,000 five-year maximum (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical procedure carve-outs through Centers of Excellence serving 3,800 enrolled employees and retirees (due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code shows no coherent recent activity aligned to its stated definition and should be treated as a misclassification artifact rather than a live procurement segment.
