UNSPSC 85716519: Drainage of thoracolumbar vertebral joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of thoracolumbar 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 0R9A3ZZ

UNSPSC 85716519 Drainage of thoracolumbar vertebral joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged under it span independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs, emergency youth detention medical services, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with orthopedic spinal drainage procedures. The mismatch suggests these opportunities were tagged to the code in error or through automated classification that does not reflect the actual work being procured.

The six recent opportunities are spread across Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), covering state departments, county governments, and municipal health systems. Because the tagged opportunities do not represent genuine demand for the procedure described in the code, no representative solicitations for spinal drainage services can be identified.
