UNSPSC 85663560 Destruction of right lower arm and wrist tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no alignment between its nominal medical-procedure taxonomy label and the state and local contract opportunities actually tagged under it. The recent solicitations posted under this code cover occupational health surveillance, pension disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, temporary health professional staffing, and independent medical examination services — none of which involve surgical destruction of a specific anatomical structure. The code appears to have been assigned inconsistently or incorrectly across these opportunities, which span multiple issuing bodies and service categories that lack meaningful connection to the code's stated scope.

The recent opportunities originate from diverse state and local entities: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Representative solicitations include the Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a maximum five-year contract value of $750,000 (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026), and the Santa Clara Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). Given the disconnect between the code's medical-procedure nomenclature and the administrative, occupational health, and staffing services actually being procured, this code is not a reliable guide to current state and local market activity in any cohesive service line.
