UNSPSC 85663658: Replacement of right lower arm and wrist tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right lower arm and wrist tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0LR54KZ

UNSPSC 85663658 Replacement of right lower arm and wrist tendon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose title does not align with recent state and local procurement activity recorded under it. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged to this code span medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and health professional staffing — none of which involve orthopedic tendon replacement surgery. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in how opportunities were tagged or a fundamental disconnect between the code's procedural scope and the types of healthcare services state and local governments are actually buying. The source shows no opportunities for the specific surgical procedure the code describes.

Geographic spread across recent opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with no apparent concentration in any single region. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) supporting disability benefit determinations for public safety retirees; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Given the code's orthopedic procedural specificity and the absence of procurement activity matching that scope, pursuit under this code is not recommended until classification can be verified.
