UNSPSC 85663564: Destruction of right shoulder tendon, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of right 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 0L513ZZ

UNSPSC 85663564 Destruction of right shoulder tendon, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The source records show no solicitations for surgical procedures, operative interventions, or medical device implants related to shoulder tendon repair. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code address occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and surgical carve-out benefit programs for public employees and retirees. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—bears no meaningful relationship to the work actually being solicited by state and local procurement offices, suggesting either a classification error in how opportunities have been tagged or a fundamental mismatch between the code's definition and current purchasing activity.

The recent opportunities span multiple states and issuing bodies, including Arizona (Phoenix Retirement Office), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington (Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), and cover administrative health services, benefits administration, and staffing rather than procedural interventions. This pattern indicates that the code either is not being used appropriately by issuing bodies or sees minimal legitimate activity aligned with its procedural definition. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for practical procurement purposes and verify opportunity classifications independently before pursuing any leads tagged under it.
