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 0RQ43ZZ

UNSPSC 85716190 Repair cervicothoracic vertebral joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that in recent state and local practice does not map clearly to the opportunities posted under it. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure on the cervical and thoracic spine—bears no relation to the healthcare administration, pharmacy benefit management, virtual care delivery, peer mental health support, and emergency medical direction services that dominate the recent solicitation record. State and local procurement offices appear to be tagging operational healthcare contracts, employee benefit programs, and clinical management services under a code designed for billable medical procedures, suggesting either a cataloging misalignment or a data artifact rather than genuine demand for vertebral repair contracting at the state and local level.

The recent opportunities posted under this code span Florida, Georgia, and California, issued by county health systems (Collier County, Monroe County), corrections departments (Columbus Consolidated Government for Muscogee County Prison), and county behavioral health agencies (San Mateo County), alongside a California municipal fire department (Santa Monica). The Columbus Consolidated Government issued RFP 26-0008 in April 2026 for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services for a 576-bed prison facility, due May 15, 2026. Collier County issued RFP 25-8414 for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services covering 7,200 covered members with approximately $8.7 million in annual historical pharmacy spend. Monroe County issued an RFP in March 2026 for Virtual Primary and Urgent Care Services effective October 1, 2026. Because the code's stated scope does not align with the work actually being solicited, business development professionals should not rely on activity under this code as a signal of state and local demand for cervicothoracic vertebral repair services or related orthopedic surgical procedures.
