UNSPSC 85671300: Bursae ligaments-abdomen perineum, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This class includes one or more of 19 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the bursae and ligaments of the abdomen and perineum with percutaneous endoscopic approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0M.

UNSPSC 85671300 Bursae ligaments-abdomen perineum, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Class code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The six most recent opportunities tagged under this code involve independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational health surveillance, detention-facility emergency medical services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve procedures on bursae or ligaments or any percutaneous endoscopic surgical work. The mismatch suggests that either the code assignment in the source data is incorrect or the code captures a narrowly specialized medical procedure that state and local governments do not currently solicit at scale through conventional procurement channels.

State and local buyers occasionally tag opportunities with codes that do not reflect the actual work being transacted, particularly in healthcare and medical services procurement where taxonomy alignment can lag behind operational needs. Absent evidence of genuine procurement activity under this specific code, firms should verify code accuracy directly with issuing bodies or procurement offices before investing in pursuit strategies. The broader healthcare and occupational medical services market that these opportunities represent operates under different UNSPSC families — medical record services, health professional staffing, and benefit management fall outside the surgical procedure taxonomy that 85671300 nominally describes.
