UNSPSC 85702436: Replacement of lumbar vertebra with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of lumbar vertebra with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0QR047Z

UNSPSC 85702436 Replacement of lumbar vertebra with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows a substantial mismatch between its nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure code—and the work actually being solicited under it by state and local governments. Recent opportunities tagged to this code involve medical services purchasing, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which relate to lumbar vertebra replacement procedures or surgical implants. The code's application by state and local procurement offices appears to reflect administrative classification rather than procurement of the surgical procedure itself or related implant materials. State and local governments are not currently soliciting lumbar vertebra replacement devices, implant materials, or related surgical supplies under this code.

The issuing bodies posting opportunities tagged to this code represent a mix of municipal retirement offices, county human resources and health systems, and state transportation agencies across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminal and vessel locations (due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code shows no relevant procurement activity and does not serve as a useful market signal for surgical implant vendors or device manufacturers.
