This class includes one or more of 19 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the bursae and ligaments of the lower extremities unspecified joint articulation 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 85671700 Bursae ligaments-lower extremities unspecified joint articulation, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Class code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five most recent opportunities posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county prison, pharmacy benefit management for a county workforce, virtual primary and urgent care services for county employees, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical direction—none of which align with orthopedic joint articulation procedures or percutaneous endoscopic surgical work. The code appears to be a misclassification in the state and local purchasing systems that track these solicitations, and prospective vendors in orthopedic or surgical service lines should verify code alignment before pursuing contracts tagged under it.
