This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of 2 or more cervical vertebral joints with autologous 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 0RG247J

UNSPSC 85716928 Fusion of 2 or more cervical vertebral joints with autologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, anterior column, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with actual state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities block. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent solicitations tagged under it cover independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve cervical vertebral fusion or any orthopedic surgical procedure. The code shows no relevant recent activity.

State and local procurement under this nominal code tier spans multiple issuing bodies including city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county health systems (County of Santa Clara), county commissioners offices (Collier County), and county health departments. Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Recent representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026, and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing services due October 7, 2026. The coding mismatch suggests either a data classification error or systematic misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy label and how state and local procurement offices are tagging health services opportunities.
