This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right hand tendon with autologous tissue substitute, 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 0LR707Z

UNSPSC 85663354 Replacement of right hand tendon with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually buying under this classification. Recent opportunities tagged to this code show no alignment with surgical tendon replacement procedures; instead, they consistently solicit for occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs, health professional staffing, and youth detention medical services — all administrative or broader healthcare management functions rather than orthopedic surgical intervention. The code appears to be a data-classification mismatch within state and local procurement systems, and practitioners should verify solicitation language and scope documents rather than rely on the UNSPSC taxonomy alone to identify relevant opportunities.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida, with issuing bodies including state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation, Washington State Ferries), county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach). Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) for ferry workers across 14 locations statewide, the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP (due October 16, 2026) for disability benefit determinations, and the Santa Clara County Health System's qualified vendor-pool solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). No procurement activity under this code shows the orthopedic surgical scope the UNSPSC name implies.
