UNSPSC 85702354: Release lumbar vertebra, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release lumbar vertebra, 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 0QN03ZZ

UNSPSC 85702354 Release lumbar vertebra, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code. The sourced opportunities center on institutional healthcare services — inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve orthopedic spine procedures or the percutaneous release technique the code describes. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the state and local procurement database or that this code is not actively used for direct procurement of the clinical service it nominally represents at state and local level.

The opportunities that do appear under this code reflect a pattern of health plan administration and outsourced medical services contracting across institutional and municipal sectors. Issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners (Collier County, Monroe County, Muscogee County in Georgia), county behavioral health departments (San Mateo County), and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica). Geographic activity spans Florida, Georgia, and California. Representative recent solicitations include Muscogee County's RFP No. 26-0008 (posted April 15, 2026, due May 15, 2026) for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at the county prison, Collier County's RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services (posted April 9, 2026, due same day) covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spending near $8.7 million, and Monroe County's RFP for Virtual Primary and Urgent Care Services (posted March 14, 2026, due April 16, 2026) for 2,300 county members. If pursuing this code, verify with procurement offices that the tagging reflects actual procurement intent rather than administrative classification error, as the clinical orthopedic scope appears disconnected from current state and local buying activity.
