UNSPSC 85663505: Repair left upper arm tendon, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair left upper arm tendon, percutaneous 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 0LQ43ZZ

UNSPSC 85663505 Repair left upper arm tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure. However, recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not align with orthopedic surgery procurement. The posted opportunities reflect health benefits administration, occupational medical surveillance, medical staffing, pharmacy management, and independent medical evaluation services — none of which involve surgical repair of upper arm tendons or procurement of operative procedures themselves. The code shows little relevant recent activity for providers of orthopedic surgical services.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent solicitations suggests either a data tagging error in state and local procurement systems or that this Commodity code is not actively used for state and local contract opportunities. Business development professionals targeting state and local orthopedic surgical service providers should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing opportunities, as the current code does not reflect genuine demand signals for upper arm tendon repair services from state departments, counties, cities, school districts, or other public bodies.
