UNSPSC 85724552: Revision of internal fixation device in lumbar vertebral joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of internal fixation device in lumbar vertebral joint, open 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 0SW004Z

UNSPSC 85724552 Revision of internal fixation device in lumbar vertebral joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal surgical scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, and surgical carve-out benefit programs—none of which involve the procurement or implantation of spinal fixation devices. The mismatch suggests this code may be incorrectly applied by the issuing bodies or reflects a broader tagging issue in state and local procurement classification systems.

The sourced opportunities originate from diverse jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). These represent city, county, and state-level administrative and healthcare entities, but none of these procurement actions relate to surgical implants, orthopedic procedures, or spinal surgery supply or service contracts. Without evidence of genuine state and local demand for spinal fixation devices under this code, pursuing opportunities tagged to UNSPSC 85724552 carries substantial classification risk and is not recommended.
