UNSPSC 85714738: Reposition occipital-cervical joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition occipital-cervical joint, open 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 0RS00ZZ

UNSPSC 85714738 Reposition occipital-cervical joint, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the medical and health services state and local governments are actually soliciting under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with orthopedic surgical procedures on the cervical spine. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and current procurement activity suggests this code may be incorrectly applied in state and local indexing systems, or the underlying procurement database contains a classification error.

The issuing bodies across the recent opportunities include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal employee benefits departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), and county commissioners procurement (Collier County). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent solicitations include the Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a response date of October 16, 2026 and maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services with a response date of October 9, 2026; the City of Long Beach RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs with a response date of October 7, 2026; and Santa Clara County Health System's multiple-award vehicle for temporary health professional staffing with a response date of October 7, 2026. Because the code's title refers to a specific surgical procedure rather than the health administration and occupational medicine services currently being procured, firms should verify code alignment with issuing agencies before pursuing opportunities tagged to this classification.
