UNSPSC 85663305 Transfer left upper arm tendon, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it do not reflect orthopedic surgery or tendon transfer work. Instead, the code shows activity in healthcare administration, employee benefits management, and clinical support services at the county and municipal level. The issuing bodies are primarily county health departments, county boards of commissioners, and municipal fire departments procuring comprehensive healthcare contracts, pharmacy benefit management, virtual care platforms, peer support services, and medical director appointments — none of which align with the code's nominal scope of open surgical tendon transfer.

Recent opportunities span Florida, Georgia, and California. Collier County, Florida issued an RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services (due April 9, 2026) covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spending around $8.7 million. Monroe County, Florida posted an RFP for Virtual Primary & Urgent Care Services (due April 16, 2026) serving approximately 2,300 county members. Columbus Consolidated Government in Georgia issued RFP No. 26-0008 for Inmate Medical & Pharmacy Services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026) with current monthly costs of $95,537.71; the incumbent is CorrectHealth Companies LLC. San Mateo County Health in California issued an RFP for a Mental Health Services Act Innovation Pilot on Peer Support for Peer Workers (due July 2, 2025) with total funding of $580,000. Santa Monica Fire Department in California sought proposals for a Fire Department Medical Director (due October 16, 2025) overseeing 18,000 annual emergency calls. The mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual procurements suggests either a data-entry error in how opportunities were tagged or a broader misalignment in how this code is deployed. Pursuit under this code should be approached cautiously until the tagging issue is clarified with the jurisdiction.
