UNSPSC 85702357: Insertion of external fixation device into sacrum, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of external fixation device into sacrum, 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 0QH135Z

UNSPSC 85702357 Insertion of external fixation device into sacrum, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity in the source. The code nominally describes an orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code relate to healthcare administration, pharmacy benefits management, virtual care delivery, peer support services, and fire department medical direction — none involving surgical implant procurement or insertion services. State and local governments do not appear to be soliciting orthopedic fixation devices or related surgical services under this code currently.

No recent opportunities in the source represent actual procurement of external fixation devices, surgical supplies for sacral procedures, or related medical implants. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being advertised suggests either a systematic tagging error in the underlying procurement database or that this code sees no active state and local solicitation volume for its intended commodity. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and verify whether a different UNSPSC code better aligns with any orthopedic device or surgical supply opportunities of interest.
