UNSPSC 85473205: Division of thoracic spinal cord, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to division of thoracic spinal cord, percutaneous 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 008X3ZZ

UNSPSC 85473205 Division of thoracic spinal cord, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its stated scope. The recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code do not involve thoracic spinal cord procedures or percutaneous interventions. Instead, the opportunities posted against this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical Center of Excellence carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which align with the code's stated medical procedure classification. This mismatch suggests the code is either underused by state and local procurement offices or systematically miscoded in the opportunities database for the types of medical services and staffing these jurisdictions actually buy.

The opportunities that do appear reflect broader state and local demand for occupational health services, medical administration, and clinical staffing. The Washington State Department of Transportation's Washington State Ferries posted RFP20260825 on August 25, 2026 (due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted RTMRFP26001 on September 16, 2026 (due October 16, 2026) for independent disability medical evaluations under Arizona's Public Safety Personnel Retirement System; and the County of Santa Clara Health System posted RFSQHHSFY270052 on July 7, 2026 (due October 7, 2026) for a multi-category temporary health professional staffing qualified vendor pool. These solicitations span Washington, Arizona, and California. Given the code–opportunity mismatch, this code warrants closer review against actual state and local procurement patterns before pursuing opportunities tagged to it.
