This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of occipital-cervical joint with synthetic substitute, 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 0RR00JZ

UNSPSC 85714747 Replacement of occipital-cervical joint with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal medical-procedure scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The source yields no recent state and local solicitations for occipital-cervical joint replacement procedures or related orthopedic implants; instead, the opportunities tagged under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations, and surgical carve-out benefit programs — none of which involve the specific surgical procedure the code nominally describes.

State and local issuers active in the recent record include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluations), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit carve-outs), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational health surveillance), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (youth detention medical services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing). The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, maximum $750,000 over five years) and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations statewide (proposals due October 9, 2026, two-year term with options to extend). The code's recent tagging appears to reflect administrative or claims-processing context rather than procurement of the specific orthopedic implant or surgical procedure it nominally identifies; vendors in orthopedic implant supply or surgical services should verify actual buyer intent before pursuing under this classification.
