UNSPSC 85671900: Bursae ligaments-lower extremities, open approach-part A

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 open 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 85671900 Bursae ligaments–lower extremities, open approach–part A is a Class code that shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal medical-procedure scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not reflect orthopedic or surgical services; instead, they span inmate healthcare management, pharmacy benefit administration, virtual primary care delivery, peer mental health support, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve bursae-ligament procedures or orthopedic surgery. The code appears to have been misapplied to these opportunities, and state and local governments are not actively soliciting bursae-ligament surgical services under this classification at present.

The recent activity instead surfaces healthcare and medical-services procurement across correctional facilities, county health plans, and emergency services. Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department Purchasing Division issued RFP No. 26-0008 in April 2026 to procure comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services for Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026), while Collier County Board of County Commissioners sought Pharmacy Benefit Management Services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (RFP 25-8414, posted April 9, 2026). Monroe County, Florida issued an RFP for Virtual Primary & Urgent Care Services effective October 1, 2026 (proposals due April 16, 2026), and San Mateo County Health, Behavioral Health and Recovery Services released RFP No. 2025-007 for peer support services ($580,000 total funding). These opportunities reflect procurement across Georgia, Florida, and California jurisdictions, though the code's misalignment with the work being bought limits its utility for vendors targeting orthopedic or surgical-services contracts.
