UNSPSC 85724339: Revision of internal fixation device in lumbosacral joint, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of internal fixation device in lumbosacral joint, 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 0SW3X4Z

UNSPSC 85724339 Revision of internal fixation device in lumbosacral joint, external approach is a Commodity code with minimal alignment to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes orthopedic surgical devices for spinal procedures, but the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect administrative and clinical services unrelated to device procurement or revision surgery itself.

The recent solicitations tagged to this code span independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which involve orthopedic fixation devices or surgical procedures on the lumbosacral joint. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for disability medical record review and independent medical examination coordination (due October 16, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers across 14 locations (due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System sought to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing including audiology, radiology, and surgical operating room roles (due October 7, 2026). These opportunities indicate either a tagging error in the state and local procurement systems or a fundamental mismatch between the code descriptor and actual procurement practice. No recent state or local solicitations for orthopedic fixation devices, spinal revision procedures, or related implantable medical devices appear under this code. Firms pursuing this code should verify whether a more appropriate UNSPSC Commodity code exists for their offering before investing in pursuit activity under this category.
