This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left shoulder 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 0L523ZZ

UNSPSC 85663563 Destruction of left shoulder tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code for a specific orthopedic surgical procedure; however, the code shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities posted under this code—independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out programs (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara)—are unrelated to orthopedic surgery or shoulder tendon repair. These solicitations reflect administrative healthcare services, staffing, and benefits management rather than procurement of surgical procedures or supplies aligned with the code's nominal scope.

The code represents a misclassification or data artifact in these jurisdictions' tagging systems. No evidence supports active state or local demand for shoulder tendon destruction procedures under UNSPSC 85663563. Firms evaluating this code should confirm directly with procurement offices whether they intend to use this code for actual orthopedic procedure procurement, as the recent record does not reflect meaningful market activity in the category as defined.
