UNSPSC 85663301: Transfer left hand 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 0LX80ZZ

UNSPSC 85663301 Transfer left hand tendon, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the medical services state and local governments are actually soliciting under this classification. Recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational health surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical carve-outs for employee health plans, temporary health professional staffing pools, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve tendon transfer procedures. State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county board commissions and human resources divisions (Collier County), municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), and municipal health plans (City of Long Beach). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being procured suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or use of the code as a catch-all category for medical service administration rather than surgical procedures.

The recent activity spans multiple states with Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Florida (Collier County), Texas (Harris County), and Washington (Department of Transportation and Ferries) represented in opportunities posted August–September 2026. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) seeking disability medical record review and examination scheduling services worth up to $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) for baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry locations; the City of Long Beach's surgical carve-out benefit program RFP (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) for Centers of Excellence networks covering knee, hip, spine, heart, and oncology procedures; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing vendor pool qualification (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) covering thirteen ancillary clinical categories. The code shows activity but poor semantic alignment with its stated commodity classification.
