UNSPSC 85671301: Transfer perineum bursa and ligament, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to transfer perineum bursa and ligament, 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 0MXK4ZZ

UNSPSC 85671301 Transfer perineum bursa and ligament, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that sits at odds with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure — a specific orthopedic or sports medicine intervention — yet the opportunities posted under this code reflect comprehensive healthcare administration, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care services, peer support programming, and emergency medical direction. State and local governments are not soliciting surgical procedures as line items under this code; instead, they are procuring managed care services, administrative health programs, and clinical staffing arrangements that may incidentally encompass many care modalities but do not map to the surgical scope the code implies.

The issuing bodies represent a mix of county health departments, county boards of commissioners, county detention facilities, and special-purpose district health agencies across multiple states — Muscogee County (Georgia), Collier County (Florida), Monroe County (Florida), San Mateo County (California), and Santa Monica (California) — with no single buyer appearing more than once. The recent opportunities include an RFP from Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department Purchasing Division for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (due April 9, 2026), Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services (due April 16, 2026), San Mateo County's RFP for peer support services for peer workers (due July 2, 2025), and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP for an EMS medical director (due October 16, 2025). The mismatch between the code's surgical procedure name and these administrative, pharmacy, and clinical staffing opportunities suggests either a tagging error or a misapplication of the UNSPSC taxonomy to healthcare services that do not fit the code's intended scope.
