This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition cervicothoracic vertebral 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 0RS43ZZ

UNSPSC 85716181 Reposition cervicothoracic vertebral joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local contract opportunities posted against it. The recent solicitations tagged under this code represent healthcare delivery and administration services — inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve orthopedic surgery, spinal procedures, or any form of vertebral joint repositioning. The mismatch suggests this code has been applied incorrectly to opportunities that fall outside its intended scope or that public procurement databases may be using outdated or misaligned classification methods for health services contracting.

The issuing bodies soliciting under these records include county governments (Muscogee County and Collier County in Georgia and Florida, Monroe County in Florida), county behavioral health departments (San Mateo County), and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica). Recent opportunities include Muscogee County Prison's RFP for inmate medical and pharmacy services (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services (due April 9, 2026, with annual pharmacy spending approximately $8.7 million), Monroe County's RFP for Virtual Primary & Urgent Care Services (due April 16, 2026), San Mateo County BHRS's MHSA Innovation pilot for peer support services ($580,000 total funding), and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP for a Medical Director (due October 16, 2025). Geographic activity is concentrated in Florida and California, with additional posting in Georgia. Given the categorical misalignment, firms pursuing orthopedic or surgical device contracts should not rely on this code to identify relevant state and local opportunities.
