UNSPSC 85663345: Reposition left 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 0LS40ZZ

UNSPSC 85663345 "Reposition left upper arm tendon, open approach" is a Commodity code that maps to surgical procedure codes but shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five most recent opportunities tagged under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county prison, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care for county members, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services — none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures or tendon repositioning. The code appears to be a medical taxonomy mismatch; state and local procurement offices do not typically solicit surgical procedures as standalone line items under UNSPSC surgical codes, and the opportunities posted under this code reflect healthcare administration and clinical staffing rather than operative services.

Because the source shows no procurement activity aligned with the code's nominal scope, the code warrants monitoring rather than immediate pursuit. If tendon repositioning and related orthopedic surgical procedures are offered as part of a broader healthcare or occupational health contract — such as workers' compensation coverage, correctional health services, or employee health plans — they may appear under this code in future solicitations. The issuing bodies in the recent block span county corrections, county human resources, county health systems, county behavioral health, and municipal fire departments across Florida, California, and Georgia, suggesting that orthopedic surgery procurement, if it occurs, would most likely emerge from county health systems, county employee health plans, or correctional health contracts rather than standalone surgical RFPs.
