UNSPSC 85692736: Release cervical vertebra, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release cervical vertebra, 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 0PN33ZZ

UNSPSC 85692736 Release cervical vertebra, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with minimal alignment between its nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—and the state and local procurement activity actually posted under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect diverse healthcare service contracts rather than the surgical intervention the code nominally describes: inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management administration, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, mental health peer support services, and fire department medical direction. None of these solicitations involve cervical vertebra procedures or percutaneous orthopedic techniques. The mismatch suggests either systematic misclassification in the state and local procurement systems or that the code has been repurposed to capture broader healthcare procurement activity.

The issuing bodies span county governments (Muscogee County, Georgia; Collier County, Florida; Monroe County, Florida) and special-purpose district health departments (San Mateo County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services, California; Santa Monica Fire Department, California). Geographic activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia, with additional California activity. Representative recent opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison with a May 15, 2026 proposal deadline (current monthly cost $95,537.71), Collier County Board of County Commissioners' RFP 25-8414 for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 members with historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million (closed April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's RFP for Virtual Primary & Urgent Care Services with proposals due April 16, 2026. No set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises appear across the opportunities; some jurisdictions note local vendor preference eligibility or MBE certification consideration as evaluation factors. The code shows recent activity but reflects procurement practice variance rather than consistent application to the code's stated orthopedic scope.
