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 0MNTXZZ

UNSPSC 85671801 Release left foot bursa and ligament, external approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—orthopedic surgical procedure—bears no relationship to the state and local procurement activity actually tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code encompass correctional-facility inmate medical and pharmacy services, county employee pharmacy benefit management, municipal virtual primary and urgent care services, county behavioral health peer support services, and municipal emergency services medical direction. None of these activities involve surgical procedures on the foot, bursa, or ligaments. The mismatch between the code's clinical descriptor and the healthcare administration and service-delivery work actually being solicited indicates that this code carries little to no relevant procurement signal for firms pursuing state and local work in orthopedic supplies, surgical services, or related medical devices and equipment.

The four opportunities currently tagged under this code span different issuing bodies—a consolidated city government's correctional division, two county boards of commissioners (one in Florida, one in California), and a municipal fire department—and cover entirely distinct service categories: inmate medical intake, chronic care, and pharmacy administration (Columbus Consolidated Government, RFP 26-0008, due May 15, 2026); employee and dependent pharmacy benefit management across 7,200 members at approximately $8.7 million annually (Collier County, RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026); virtual and urgent care platform services for 2,300 county members (Monroe County, RFP, due April 16, 2026); mental health peer support for peer workers funded at $580,000 over three years (San Mateo County, RFP 2025-007); and EMS medical direction for a fire department handling 18,000 annual calls (Santa Monica Fire Department, RFP 455). The UNSPSC coding appears to be an administrative error rather than a systematic purchasing category. Firms should treat this code as inactive for procurement purposes and monitor the underlying service categories—correctional health, pharmacy benefit management, virtual care, behavioral health, and EMS medical oversight—through direct surveillance of relevant jurisdiction notices rather than through UNSPSC 85671801.
