This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release left shoulder tendon, 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 0LN24ZZ

UNSPSC 85663715 Release left shoulder tendon, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal surgical procedure scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not solicit orthopedic surgical services or procedures; instead, they reflect a mix of occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluation, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care coordination through centers of excellence, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services. The code appears to have been applied to health-services procurement more broadly rather than to the specific procedural intervention the code names.

The issuing bodies span state departments, counties, and municipal governments across several states. The Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of the Washington State Ferries) posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance services with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office sought independent medical evaluation services with a response deadline of October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach is requesting surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit proposals due October 7, 2026; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services due September 25, 2026; Collier County is soliciting pharmacy benefit management services; and the County of Santa Clara Health System is establishing a temporary health professional staffing vendor pool due October 7, 2026. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no dominant repeat buyer. The mismatch between the code name and the actual work being solicited suggests that state and local procurement offices are using this code for general health services procurement rather than for orthopedic surgical procedures specifically, making it an unreliable indicator of demand for the procedure itself.
