UNSPSC 85663510: Release right hand tendon, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release right hand 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 0LN73ZZ

UNSPSC 85663510 Release right hand tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code bears no relationship to that clinical classification. The opportunities posted show state and local governments using this code to solicit medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and surgical benefit programs — none of which involve the named procedure. The code mismatch reflects a systematic tagging problem rather than active procurement demand for percutaneous tendon-release work at the state and local level. Issuing bodies include a state transportation agency, city retirement systems, county health authorities, and county human services departments.

The geographic spread includes Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities are the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefits (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years); the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs (HR26753, due October 7, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department's RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (071626BNM, due September 25, 2026); Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026, estimated annual historical spend $8.7 million); and Santa Clara County Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive multiple-award). The code shows material recent activity at the state and county level, but the posted opportunities do not align with the orthopedic surgery scope encoded in the UNSPSC number itself.
