UNSPSC 85471720: Revision of infusion device in spinal canal, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of infusion device in spinal canal, external 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 00WUX3Z

UNSPSC 85471720 Revision of infusion device in spinal canal, external approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — surgical revision of spinal infusion devices — does not match the kinds of services state and local governments are currently buying under this classification.

The most recent opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgical care coordination, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these services involve spinal device revision or surgical intervention. The issuing bodies posting opportunities under this code include state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), county boards of commissioners (Collier County), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), and municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix). Geographic activity spans Washington, California, Florida, Arizona, and Texas. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFQ (due October 9, 2026) and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP (due October 16, 2026). The code exhibits a tagging error — state and local procurement systems have classified diverse health services and administrative medical support activities under a code intended for a specific orthopedic surgical procedure. Pursue this code only after verifying that a particular issuing body's recent opportunities genuinely involve spinal device implant revision work; the current record does not support active procurement demand in that domain.
