UNSPSC 85663333: Resection of 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 0LT80ZZ

UNSPSC 85663333 Resection of left hand tendon, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure on hand tendons; however, the six recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code involve occupational medical surveillance services, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which correspond to surgical tendon resection or orthopedic hand procedures. The mismatch between the code's scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either a classification error in the source data or that this code does not currently reflect genuine procurement activity for hand surgery services at the state and local level.

The recent opportunities span diverse issuing bodies including a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county-level authorities (Harris County, Collier County), municipal governments (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), and a county health system (Santa Clara County Health System), with geographic activity across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers with proposals due October 9, 2026 (RFP20260825); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 five-year maximum contract and proposals due October 16, 2026 (RTMRFP26001); and the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out program for its Anthem Blue Cross PPO with proposals due October 7, 2026 (HR26753). No procurement activity under this code appears to address surgical hand procedures.
