UNSPSC 85714977: Insertion of interspinous process spinal stabilization device into occipital-cervical joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of interspinous process spinal stabilization device into occipital-cervical joint, 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 0RH03BZ

UNSPSC 85714977 Insertion of interspinous process spinal stabilization device into occipital-cervical joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code describes a specific surgical procedure involving spinal implant placement, but the recent opportunities tagged to it cover inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve orthopedic or spinal surgical device insertion or procurement.

State and local procurement databases occasionally apply codes that do not align with the actual work being solicited. This code appears to be such a mismatch. The opportunities on file reflect diverse issuing bodies — a county consolidated government purchasing division, two county boards of commissioners, a county health department, and a municipal fire department — and cover healthcare administration and service delivery contracts rather than medical device procurement. No recent solicitation under this code targets spinal stabilization devices or related orthopedic implants. Business development professionals should verify code assignment directly with issuing bodies if pursuing opportunities that claim alignment with this code, or consider whether activity lies under codes addressing medical devices, surgical supplies, or healthcare equipment rather than this specific procedural code.
