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 0MXQ0ZZ

UNSPSC 85671904 Transfer right ankle bursa and ligament, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local government procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code—Inmate Medical & Pharmacy Services for Muscogee County Prison (RFP, due May 15, 2026), Pharmacy Benefit Management Services for Collier County (RFP, due April 9, 2026), Virtual Primary & Urgent Care Services for Monroe County (RFP, due April 16, 2026), Peer Support for Peer Workers for San Mateo County (RFP, due July 2, 2025), and Fire Department Medical Director services for Santa Monica (RFP, due October 16, 2025)—are health care administration and management contracts, not orthopedic surgical procedures. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical intervention on the ankle, which state and local procurement systems do not typically buy as standalone line items.

The mismatch between code and opportunity suggests either a classification error in the data or that this code does not reflect active state and local procurement demand for the service it nominally describes. State and local health systems, county detention facilities, and municipal fire departments do contract for physician services, emergency care, and health plan administration—all visible in the recent postings—but these solicitations are miscoded if they are indeed tagged to 85671904. No direct evidence of state or local governments procuring ankle bursa and ligament transfer procedures under this code appears in the source material. A vendor evaluating this code should treat it as dormant for state and local purposes or verify the coding with relevant procurement offices before committing resources.
