UNSPSC 85716344 Fusion of 2 to 7 thoracic vertebral joints with autologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, posterior column, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities tagged under this code—spanning independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees, occupational health surveillance for ferry workers, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—bear no relation to spinal fusion procedures or surgical implantation services. The code appears to be a clinical procedure classification misapplied to benefit-administration and occupational-health procurements that do not involve the acquisition of spine-fusion implants, surgical services, or related devices.

State and local procurement under this code shows no identifiable activity. Business development professionals should verify whether the code is correctly classified for their target market; if pursuing spine-surgery-related supplies or services, confirm the correct UNSPSC family or commodity code with procurement offices before investing in pursuit strategy.
