UNSPSC 85663338: Resection of right upper arm tendon, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of right upper arm 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 0LT30ZZ

UNSPSC 85663338 Resection of right upper arm tendon, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not match the work actually being solicited under this classification in the public sector. Recent opportunities tagged to this code include independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, occupational health surveillance for ferry system workers, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing placement, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, and emergency medical services for youth in detention. None of these solicitations involve orthopedic surgery or upper-extremity tendon procedures. The mismatch suggests either a data-coding error in the state or local procurement system or use of the code as a catch-all for health-service categories without alignment to the actual procedure taxonomy.

The opportunities themselves span diverse issuing bodies—municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation and health systems (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County)—across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with response dates clustered between late September and mid-October 2026. This code, as currently deployed in state and local procurement systems, offers no reliable signal for vendors pursuing medical or surgical services contracts and should not be used as a primary sourcing filter.
