UNSPSC 85715220: Fusion of occipital-cervical joint with interbody fusion device, posterior approach, anterior column, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of occipital-cervical joint with interbody fusion device, posterior approach, anterior column, 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 0RG04AJ

UNSPSC 85715220, Fusion of occipital-cervical joint with interbody fusion device, posterior approach, anterior column, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code involve independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, specialty surgical networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which align with the orthopedic spinal fusion implant or surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in state and local procurement systems or that this particular implant and approach combination is not actively being solicited through state and local channels at present.

The geographic spread of the mis-tagged opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), but these jurisdictions are procuring health services, staffing, and benefit administration rather than the surgical device specified in the code. State and local procurement professionals evaluating this code should treat it as currently inactive for the target work and monitor for future activity realignment or genuine orthopedic device solicitations.
