UNSPSC 85724330: Revision of synthetic substitute in lumbosacral disc, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in lumbosacral disc, external 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 0SW4XJZ

UNSPSC 85724330 Revision of synthetic substitute in lumbosacral disc, external approach is a Commodity code for a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not involve spine surgery or orthopedic implants. Instead, the opportunities solicited under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefits administration, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — a scope mismatch that indicates either miscoding in the sourcing system or that state and local procurement offices are applying this code to broader occupational and administrative healthcare services rather than to the specific lumbosacral disc revision procedure the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and probation departments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, County of Santa Clara Health System, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), and municipal governments (City of Long Beach). No state or local agency appears more than once in the recent opportunities block.

Recent activity is concentrated in California, Washington, Arizona, Texas, and Florida. The Washington State Department of Transportation is soliciting proposals for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference scheduled for August 31, 2026 (RFP20260825). The City of Phoenix Retirement Office is requesting proposals for independent medical evaluation and disability record summary services for approximately 75 annual pension disability applications, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and proposals due October 16, 2026 (RTMRFP26001). The County of Santa Clara Health System is establishing a multiple-award qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories with proposals due October 7, 2026 (RFSQHHSFY270052). Given the divergence between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being bought, this code shows limited relevance to state and local opportunities for spine surgery or disc revision services.
