This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right ankle bursa and ligament with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0MUQ4KZ

UNSPSC 85672218 Supplement right ankle bursa and ligament with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope — a specific orthopedic surgical procedure — and the actual work state and local governments are currently soliciting under this code. The recent opportunities tagged to this code involve medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, and temporary health professional staffing, none of which relate to the procedure named in the code. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source system or inconsistent code assignment across issuing bodies, rendering this code of limited practical relevance for pursuing work in the stated procedure area.

Recent activity spans multiple jurisdictions and service lines unrelated to ankle surgery. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations, with a five-year term and maximum compensation of $750,000. The Washington State Department of Transportation sought proposals for occupational medical surveillance services across fourteen ferry locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). The County of Santa Clara Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, radiology, and therapy services (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Collier County issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 members. The City of Long Beach requested proposals for a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program through Centers of Excellence for knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures (HR26753, due October 7, 2026). Given the disconnect between the code's stated procedure and the actual work being purchased, this code does not reliably serve as a procurement signal for orthopedic surgery supply or services in the state and local market.
