This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of 2 to 7 thoracic vertebral joints, posterior approach, anterior column, 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 0RG73ZJ

UNSPSC 85716331 Fusion of 2 to 7 thoracic vertebral joints, posterior approach, anterior column, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 and tagged under this code—independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—represent administrative healthcare services, benefits management, and clinical staffing rather than spinal fusion procedures or surgical interventions matching the code's nominal scope. The code's abstract name describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the tagged solicitations reflect state and local governments purchasing healthcare administration, occupational wellness, employee benefits, and staffing coordination services across multiple jurisdictions and issuing bodies.

The issuing bodies include a city retirement board (City of Phoenix), a municipal government (City of Long Beach), a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), a county board of commissioners (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and a county health system (County of Santa Clara Health System). Geographic distribution spans Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. This code does not support meaningful business development targeting under its stated surgical procedure definition, as the actual recent procurement activity reflects administrative and staffing services wholly unrelated to spinal fusion surgery or orthopedic procedures.
