UNSPSC 85715607: Reposition cervical vertebral joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition cervical vertebral 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 0RS10ZZ

UNSPSC 85715607 Reposition cervical vertebral joint, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally designates a specific surgical procedure, but state and local government solicitations tagged under this code show minimal relevant activity. Recent opportunities under this code involve occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which directly align with cervical spine repositioning procedures. The code appears to be a mismatch between its abstract surgical designation and actual state and local procurement patterns in the source material.

The geographic spread of recent opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with no single jurisdiction or region showing concentrated activity under this code. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) supporting disability benefit determinations, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (due October 9, 2026) covering ferry system workers across 14 locations, and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026) establishing a qualified vendor pool across multiple ancillary clinical categories. The code's actual procurement activity does not reflect cervical spine surgery; business development professionals pursuing work in surgical procedure carve-outs, occupational health services, or health professional staffing should reference alternative UNSPSC codes aligned with those scopes rather than rely on this commodity designation.
