UNSPSC 85716115 Revision of synthetic substitute in thoracic vertebral disc, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to actual state and local government procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not reflect spinal surgery or orthopedic implant procurement; instead, they capture medical services procurement—occupational health screening, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for public safety pension determinations, surgical care networks, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, and temporary clinical staffing. None of these solicitations involve the surgical implants, vertebral disc revision materials, or procedural supplies the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests systematic tagging misalignment rather than genuine demand under the code's scope.

State and local issuing bodies posting under this code span county health systems (Santa Clara), county procurement offices (Collier County, Harris County), state transportation and ferry agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), municipal government (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), and independent pension boards. Recent activity is concentrated in California (Santa Clara, Long Beach), Arizona (Phoenix), Florida (Collier County), Washington (state-level), and Texas (Harris County). Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals (due October 9, 2026, cost-based ITB with 60-point non-cost weighting), Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 7,200 members (originally due April 9, 2026, three-year term with estimated historical spend of $8.7 million annually), and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability determinations for public safety pensions ($750,000 over five years, due October 16, 2026). The code does not reflect active procurement of the spinal surgery or orthopedic implant products its nominal description suggests.
