UNSPSC 85716791: Insertion of facet replacement spinal stabilization device into cervical vertebral joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of facet replacement spinal stabilization device into cervical 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 0RH14DZ

UNSPSC 85716791, Insertion of facet replacement spinal stabilization device into cervical vertebral joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not align with the nominal scope of the code—they cover independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve implantable spinal stabilization devices or the surgical procedures the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests that state and local procurement systems are applying this code to general medical services and benefit administration rather than to the specific orthopedic device category the code nominally defines.

The recent activity that does appear spans several issuing bodies—a city retirement office (Phoenix), two cities (Long Beach and Tacoma via Washington State Ferries), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), a county board of commissioners (Collier County), and a county health system (Santa Clara). Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas, though the sample is too small and the scope mismatch too pronounced to characterize this as meaningful market activity for the code's stated purpose. Firms evaluating this code should verify directly with state and local procurement offices whether they intend to tag spinal device procurement under this number or whether the code has drifted into administrative health services classification in practice.
