UNSPSC 85716281: Insertion of internal fixation device into thoracic vertebral joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of internal fixation device into 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 0RH634Z

UNSPSC 85716281, Insertion of internal fixation device into thoracic vertebral joint, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six most recent opportunities posted under or near this code span independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve orthopedic spine device insertion or related surgical procedures. The code's nominal scope (a specific surgical intervention on thoracic vertebrae) does not align with the medical administration, staffing, and benefit-management services that state and local bodies are currently soliciting in this category.

No representative opportunities exist under this code. The mismatch between the Commodity code's clinical specification and the administrative and managed-care services appearing in recent state and local notices suggests either systematic miscoding in the procurement database or minimal actual demand for this specific procedure as a stand-alone line item in state and local contracting. Practitioners should verify whether state and local medical device, orthopedic implant, or surgical supply codes are more active for spine intervention products and services.
