This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of internal fixation device into sacrum, 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 0QH104Z

UNSPSC 85702259 Insertion of internal fixation device into sacrum, 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—placement of fixation hardware into the sacrum via open surgical approach—but the recent opportunities tagged under it reflect healthcare services procurement across multiple service lines including inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction. None of these solicitations involve orthopedic implants, surgical supplies, or the procedural inputs the code's name suggests. The mismatch indicates either persistent miscoding at the source or that this commodity code is rarely used in state and local procurement for its intended purpose.

The issuing bodies in the recent opportunities span county governments (Muscogee County in Georgia, Collier County in Florida, Monroe County in Florida, and San Mateo County in California) and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica, California), suggesting the code captures healthcare contracting broadly rather than implant procurement specifically. Geographic activity appears concentrated in Florida and California with one Georgia solicitation; no clear pattern of repeat buyers emerges from the sample. Representative recent opportunities include the Muscogee County Prison RFP No. 26-0008 (posted April 15, 2026, due May 15, 2026) for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at an annual cost of approximately $95,537.71 monthly; Collier County RFP 25-8414 (posted April 9, 2026) for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spending of $8.7 million; and Monroe County RFP (posted March 14, 2026, due April 16, 2026) for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members. The code shows little relevant recent activity for orthopedic implant or surgical supply procurement.
