UNSPSC 85702343: Removal of internal fixation device from coccyx, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of internal fixation device from coccyx, percutaneous 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 0QPS34Z

UNSPSC 85702343 Removal of internal fixation device from coccyx, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure code—does not align with the six recent opportunities tagged under it, which span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, disability medical evaluations, surgical carve-out programs, emergency detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations actually procure coccyx fixation removal procedures or relate to the orthopedic surgical intervention the code describes.

The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the source records or that the code is being used as a catch-all for health services contracting unrelated to its technical definition. No state or local purchasing office appears to be actively soliciting under this code for its intended commodity scope. Buyers in Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington are procuring health services management, staffing, and benefit administration rather than surgical procedures. The code does not present a meaningful procurement opportunity as currently tagged in state and local systems.
