UNSPSC 85671938: Resection of right knee bursa and ligament, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of right knee bursa and ligament, open 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 0MTN0ZZ

UNSPSC 85671938 Resection of right knee bursa and ligament, open approach is a Commodity code that, despite its clinical nomenclature, does not align with the state and local procurement activity recently tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code involve medical evaluation and occupational health surveillance services, pharmacy benefit management administration, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit program coordination—none of which constitute orthopedic surgical procedures. The mismatch indicates that this code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement; the opportunities appear to have been miscoded or cross-referenced by source systems.

The six opportunities on record span Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara Health System), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), reflecting fragmented issuing-body types including municipal retirement offices, cities, county health systems, state transportation departments, and county human services agencies. Response dates cluster in September through October 2026, with the City of Phoenix Retirement Office seeking independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations (RFP due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach requesting surgical carve-out benefit program proposals (RFP due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation soliciting occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 locations (RFP due October 9, 2026 with pre-bid August 31). Given the code's orthopedic surgical nature and the absence of actual surgery procurement in these records, this code warrants close verification against the issuing bodies' actual scope definitions before pursuit; the recent activity does not support surgical procedure contracting.
