UNSPSC 85663530: Excision of right upper arm tendon, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right 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 0LB33ZZ

UNSPSC 85663530 Excision of right upper arm tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this classification. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, but the most recent opportunities solicited under this code involve inmate medical services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction—none of which concern surgical excision or orthopedic procedures.

The mismatch suggests either a classification error in how opportunities have been tagged to this code or a data anomaly in the posting system. State and local procurement offices are not currently buying surgical procedures under UNSPSC 85663530 based on the available recent opportunities. If your firm pursues opportunities tagged to this code, verify the actual scope of work at the point of solicitation rather than relying on the code classification alone.
