UNSPSC 85716740: Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from cervical vertebral disc, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from cervical vertebral disc, 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 0RP34KZ

UNSPSC 85716740, Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from cervical vertebral disc, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not align with the recent opportunities posted under it, which instead reflect diverse healthcare administration, staffing, and benefit management services that fall outside spine surgery procurement.

The mismatch between the code's technical clinical descriptor and actual recent solicitation activity signals that this code is not reliably used by state and local jurisdictions to buy spine surgery services or related medical devices. Buyers across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington have posted opportunities under this code for independent medical evaluations (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), surgical benefit carve-outs (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty care for youth in detention (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary ancillary clinical staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations concern cervical vertebral disc procedures or tissue substitutes. The code should not be treated as a reliable procurement avenue for spine surgery implants, devices, or procedure-specific contracting; business development activity should focus on the issuing bodies' actual procurement patterns rather than the code's stated clinical scope.
