UNSPSC 85716804: Fusion of thoracolumbar vertebral joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, anterior column, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of thoracolumbar vertebral joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, anterior column, 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 0RGA4KJ

UNSPSC 85716804 Fusion of thoracolumbar vertebral joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, anterior column, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under it concern occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, health professional temporary staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and youth detention healthcare services — none of which align with spinal fusion implants or the procedural scope the code nominally covers. This mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or abandonment of the code for actual state and local procurement of spinal fusion devices and related services.

Bidders evaluating this code should verify directly with issuing jurisdictions whether spine-related implants, surgical instrumentation, or procedure-specific medical device procurement is occurring under alternative UNSPSC codes or whether state and local demand for thoracolumbar fusion services is being captured elsewhere in their taxonomy. The current recent-opportunity record provides no actionable intelligence for vendors targeting spinal fusion procurement.
