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 0RJ63ZZ

UNSPSC 85716264 Inspection of thoracic vertebral joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific invasive medical procedure—does not align with the state and local opportunities posted under it. Recent solicitations tagged to this code cover occupational medical surveillance, disability benefits evaluation, surgical carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention medical services—none of which involve thoracic vertebral joint inspection or percutaneous approaches. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the jurisdiction's procurement system or a code assignment that does not reflect the actual goods and services being bought.

State and local buyers posting under this code in the past two months include the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. These jurisdictions span state departments, counties, and municipal health systems across Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. The opportunities run from July through August 2026, with response dates through October 2026, but none substantively match the code's stated purpose. Absent alignment between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited, this code presents minimal opportunity for vendors in the thoracic vertebral intervention space.
