UNSPSC 85716225: Removal of infusion device from thoracic vertebral joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of infusion device from thoracic 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 0RP633Z

UNSPSC 85716225 Removal of infusion device from thoracic vertebral joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure for device removal, yet the six recent opportunities tagged to it span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgical center-of-excellence networks, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve infusion device removal procedures. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding of healthcare-related solicitations or a taxonomic misalignment between the code's clinical definition and how state and local procurement offices are tagging their buys.

No solicitations in the source represent actual procurement of the service named in the code. The opportunities present—Phoenix Retirement Office seeking disability medical record review and independent medical examinations; Long Beach seeking surgical benefit carve-out networks; Washington State Ferries seeking occupational medical surveillance; Harris County seeking emergency and specialty care for detained youth; Collier County seeking pharmacy benefit management; and Santa Clara Health System seeking temporary ancillary clinical staffing—reflect broader public sector healthcare administration and staffing activity, but none involve procurement of thoracic vertebral joint infusion device removal. Firms evaluating this code should treat it as a low-signal category and verify their target solicitations against actual statement-of-work language rather than rely on the UNSPSC assignment.
