UNSPSC 85716141: Revision of synthetic substitute in cervical vertebral disc, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in cervical vertebral disc, 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 0RW33JZ

UNSPSC 85716141 Revision of synthetic substitute in cervical vertebral disc, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The source records show no orthopedic surgical procedures or implant procurement; instead, the opportunities solicited under this code span occupational and disability medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical care network management—none of which correspond to the code's nominal scope of cervical disc surgery procedures.

The mismatch reflects a known categorization challenge in state and local UNSPSC tagging: healthcare service contracts and occupational health programs are sometimes classified under clinical procedure codes when no better taxonomy fit exists. Recent activity appears concentrated in California, Arizona, Washington, and Florida, with issuing bodies including municipal governments (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara Health System, Collier County, Harris County), and pension boards. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP RTMRFP26001 (independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP20260825 (occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFSQHHSFY270052 (temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026). The code shows limited relevance to orthopedic device or surgical implant procurement; firms pursuing cervical disc revision opportunities should verify code alignment in each RFP before responding.
