UNSPSC 85716637: Revision of internal fixation device in cervicothoracic vertebral joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of internal fixation device in cervicothoracic vertebral joint, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0RW444Z

UNSPSC 85716637 Revision of internal fixation device in cervicothoracic vertebral joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local procurement activity currently being solicited. The recent opportunities tagged under this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension board disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—are health services administration, benefits management, and clinical staffing contracts with no connection to spinal orthopedic devices or surgical instrumentation. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure and device category, yet the posted opportunities reflect general healthcare contracting across state departments, counties, municipal health systems, and juvenile justice agencies seeking administrative and clinical services.

The mismatch between the code designation and the actual procurements signals that this UNSPSC Commodity code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local markets. Entities such as the Washington State Department of Transportation, City of Long Beach, City of Phoenix, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara are not sourcing spinal fixation devices or purchasing related surgical implants under this code. Business development professionals evaluating UNSPSC 85716637 should verify the correct code assignment for orthopedic device and spinal surgery supply opportunities and treat this code as inactive for practical state and local procurement purposes.
