UNSPSC 85716712: Removal of infusion device from thoracolumbar vertebral joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of infusion device from thoracolumbar 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 0RPA43Z

UNSPSC 85716712 Removal of infusion device from thoracolumbar vertebral joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure for spinal intervention; the six recent opportunities posted under this code instead solicit independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical and medical procedure carve-outs through centers of excellence, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. These opportunities span public-sector healthcare administration, occupational medicine, and employee benefit plan management rather than the specific interventional spine procedure the code name denotes. The misalignment suggests either a data-entry error in code assignment or a classification artifact; the opportunities represent substantive medical and administrative services but do not reflect the procedure named in the Commodity code.

Recent activity appears across multiple state and local issuing bodies — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferries personnel (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, two-year initial term with optional extensions), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026, five-year qualified list). The code shows no coherent procurement signal relevant to the titled procedure.
