UNSPSC 85663415: Release left shoulder tendon, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release left shoulder 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 0LN20ZZ

UNSPSC 85663415 Release left shoulder tendon, open approach is a Commodity code that does not map to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs for employee health plans, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve orthopedic shoulder surgery or procedural intervention. The tagging appears to reflect a misalignment between the UNSPSC code's clinical specificity and the health services and administrative operations actually being procured by state and local issuing bodies.

The recent opportunities show activity from diverse issuing bodies — a city retirement office (Phoenix), municipalities (Long Beach, and implicitly Santa Clara County Health System), a state transportation department (Washington), and a county juvenile probation department (Harris County) — but none pursue shoulder tendon release procedures. Without relevant recent procurement activity under the code as stated, this UNSPSC category presents no actionable business development signal for firms pursuing state and local health services contracts.
