UNSPSC 85702229: Replacement of coccyx with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of coccyx with nonautologous tissue 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 0QRS0KZ

UNSPSC 85702229 Replacement of coccyx with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure involving coccyx replacement, yet the recent solicitations posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefits carve-outs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve coccyx procedures or orthopedic implants. This mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source data or application of an inapplicable code to health services procurement more broadly.

The issuing bodies across the sample include a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and human services agencies (Santa Clara, Harris County, Collier County), and municipal retirement and benefits offices (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach). Geographic distribution spans California, Florida, Texas, Washington, and Arizona. Representative opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026 (baseline and periodic medical examinations for ferry workers across 14 locations); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 (disability benefit assessments at $750,000 over five years); and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management due April 9, 2026 (covering approximately 2,400 employees with historical annual spending of $8.7 million). Given the disconnect between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being procured, this code should be treated as showing no relevant recent state and local activity for orthopedic implant or surgical-procedure contracting.
