UNSPSC 85692812: Supplement cervical vertebra with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement cervical vertebra 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 0PU34KZ

UNSPSC 85692812 Supplement cervical vertebra with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) does not match the work actually being solicited under this code in recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical implant procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under it span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out networks for employee benefits, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve cervical vertebra implantation. This mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding by posting jurisdictions or a data-quality issue in the UNSPSC assignment, and indicates the code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope.

The six recent opportunities span state agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county systems (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), and municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office) and city procurement bureaus (City of Long Beach). Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, proposals due October 16, 2026) supporting disability pension determinations; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, proposals due October 9, 2026, pre-bid August 31, 2026); and the Santa Clara County Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, proposals due October 7, 2026). Absent alignment between the code's nominal scope and actual purchasing activity, this code does not warrant pursuit under its stated medical-device descriptor.
