UNSPSC 85716759: Release cervical vertebral disc, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release 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 0RN34ZZ

UNSPSC 85716759, Release cervical vertebral disc, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its clinical procedure name and the recent state and local opportunities tagged to it. The code nominally describes a specific neurosurgical technique, yet the recent solicitations under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth—none of which involve cervical disc release procedures. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding or that state and local procurement systems are using this code as a catch-all for medical services outside their core tagging framework.

Recent opportunities come from diverse issuing bodies including a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and commissions (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation, Collier County), and municipalities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach). The geographic spread spans Washington, California, Texas, Arizona, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations with a $750,000 maximum five-year contract value and proposals due October 16, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara's multiple-award qualification pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code shows no relevant recent activity for the cervical disc procedure it nominally names.
