UNSPSC 85702109: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lumbar vertebra, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lumbar vertebra, 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 0QW0XKZ

UNSPSC 85702109, Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lumbar vertebra, external approach, is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—surgical revision of a spinal implant—does not match the recent state and local solicitations posted under it. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its surgical device designation. Instead, the five posted opportunities range across occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, Centers of Excellence carve-out programs for surgical procedures, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations concern the implantation, removal, or revision of nonautologous tissue substitutes in the lumbar spine. The mismatch suggests either miscoding at the issuing body level or a systematic cataloging error in how these opportunities were tagged to the UNSPSC framework.

The issuing bodies span state departments, counties, and municipal governments across multiple states: the Washington State Department of Transportation (Washington), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). The opportunities posted between July and September 2026 with response deadlines between September 25 and October 20, 2026. No representative opportunities are decision-relevant under this code's actual scope because the solicitations themselves do not procure tissue substitutes or spine surgery services.
