This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in lumbar vertebral 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 0SW2XJZ

UNSPSC 85724343 Revision of synthetic substitute in lumbar vertebral disc, external approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its surgical-procedure scope. The six recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code span independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical carve-out benefit management for municipal employees (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations directly procure lumbar disc revision procedures, implants, or related surgical services. The opportunities instead reflect broader health-care administration, benefits management, and workforce support—activities that fall outside the code's orthopedic surgical scope.

The issuing bodies span multiple jurisdiction types: municipal government (Phoenix, Long Beach), state transportation agency (Washington), county government (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara), and county health systems. Geographic activity is scattered across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. The absence of solicitations actually requesting lumbar disc revision services, spinal implants, surgical supplies, or related procedures suggests that this code either sees minimal state and local procurement volume or that purchasing entities are tagging medical-administration work under an orthopedic-procedure code due to taxonomy misalignment.
