UNSPSC 85702263: Extirpation of matter from sacrum, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from 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 0QC10ZZ

UNSPSC 85702263 Extirpation of matter from sacrum, open approach is a Commodity code that does not match the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it. The code describes a surgical procedure — removal of tissue or matter from the sacrum using an open surgical approach — but the five most recent opportunities posted under this code solicitate inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical director services. None of these solicitations involve surgical procedures or sacral extirpation. The mismatch suggests either a data-quality issue in the tagging of these opportunities or a fundamental misalignment between the code's clinical definition and how state and local procurement systems are classifying healthcare services.

The issuing bodies include county corrections departments (Muscogee County Prison in Georgia), county governments (Collier County and Monroe County, Florida), county health departments (San Mateo County, California), and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica, California), spanning Georgia, Florida, and California. The geographic spread is limited and driven by administrative or provider-service contracts in those three states rather than a broad national market for this specific procedure code. Because the opportunities do not reflect actual demand for sacral extirpation services, this code does not represent actionable procurement activity for firms pursuing surgical or orthopedic-device contracts in state and local markets.
