UNSPSC 85716935: Fusion of cervical vertebral joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, posterior column, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of cervical vertebral joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, posterior 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 0RG14K1

UNSPSC 85716935 Fusion of cervical vertebral joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, posterior column, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific spinal fusion surgical procedure; the six recent state and local opportunities posted between July and September 2026 solicit independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefit carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth—none of which correspond to the orthopedic procedure the code names.

No recent state and local contract opportunities reflect procurement activity under this code's actual scope. The mismatch between the Commodity code's designation and current market activity suggests either misclassification in the source records or minimal pursuit of this procedure-specific code among state and local buyers. Jurisdictions soliciting related medical services—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and County of Santa Clara Health System—are using broader health services codes rather than procedure-specific surgical taxonomy.
