UNSPSC 85702214: Supplement coccyx with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement coccyx with synthetic substitute, open 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 0QUS0JZ

UNSPSC 85702214 Supplement coccyx with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The six most recent opportunities posted under or near this code—independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out programs (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System)—involve medical services administration, clinical staffing, and benefits management rather than orthopedic surgical procedures or implant procurement. None of these solicitations align with the code's nominal scope of coccyx-replacement surgery using synthetic materials.

The mismatch between the code definition and the posted opportunities suggests the code either carries low activity volume in state and local procurement or is not commonly used to tag this category of work when jurisdictions do procure such services. Entities purchasing orthopedic implants or surgical supplies typically route those acquisitions through different UNSPSC families or directly via cooperative purchasing vehicles tied to medical supply or hospital services codes. If targeting orthopedic implant or surgical procedure work, business development professionals should verify the actual UNSPSC codes state and local buyers assign to orthopedic or implant-related RFPs and RFQs in their target regions rather than rely on this code as a reliable signal.
