UNSPSC 85711634: Fusion of left sternoclavicular joint with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of left sternoclavicular joint 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 0RGF47Z

UNSPSC 85711634, Fusion of left sternoclavicular joint with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows no recent relevant state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a highly specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the six most recent opportunities posted under this code by state and local issuers are for independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which match the surgical procedure named in the code. This represents a classification mismatch rather than active buying under the code's intended scope.

The source provides no evidence that state and local governments are currently soliciting procurement of the stereotactic fusion procedure itself. The tagged opportunities instead reflect broader healthcare administration, employee benefits management, and clinical staffing — functions that fall outside the Commodity code's nominal definition. Bidders evaluating this code should recognize the disconnect and pursue opportunities only if they explicitly reference the sternoclavicular joint procedure or related implant-based orthopedic interventions, which the current posting history does not support.
