UNSPSC 85663011: Removal of autologous tissue substitute from lower tendon, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of autologous tissue substitute from 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 0LPY37Z

UNSPSC 85663011 Removal of autologous tissue substitute from lower tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, but none of the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect removal of autologous tissue substitutes or lower tendon procedures. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgical carve-out programs for municipal employees, independent disability medical evaluations, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which align with the specific orthopedic surgical procedure the code is intended to cover. This mismatch suggests either miscoding in the source data or that state and local procurement systems are using this code in ways disconnected from its UNSPSC definition.

The six recent opportunities span diverse issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System—across Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference scheduled August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification-based RFQ for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). Given the lack of procedural-code alignment and the diversity of health-system and administrative services actually being purchased, firms should verify code assignment with the issuing body before pursuing work under this code.
