UNSPSC 85663015: Removal of autologous tissue substitute from upper tendon, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of autologous tissue substitute from upper 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 0LPX37Z

UNSPSC 85663015 Removal of autologous tissue substitute from upper tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent opportunities posted under this code reflect administrative medical services, occupational health surveillance, employee benefit program administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve autologous tissue procedures or upper tendon surgery. The mismatch between the code's clinical taxonomy and the actual work being solicited suggests either tagging error or the code's assignment to broader-than-intended medical administration categories in state and local purchasing systems.

The recent opportunities using this code span Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas, with issuing bodies including municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), city HR and procurement departments (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation departments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and county board commissions (Collier County). Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 (approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications, $750,000 five-year maximum); Washington State Department of Transportation's RFQ for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington ferry locations due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference August 31, 2026; and County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing (including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, orthopedic, surgical, and therapy services) due October 7, 2026. Given the systematic divergence between the code definition and posted work, treating this code as a reliable signal for procurement strategy is not supported by the source material.
