UNSPSC 85724558: Supplement right sacroiliac joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right sacroiliac joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0SU70KZ

UNSPSC 85724558 Supplement right sacroiliac joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code show no alignment with orthopedic implant procurement or surgical supplies. Instead, the solicitations reflect health professional staffing, medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, pension disability evaluations, and hospital-based specialty care — none of which involve sacroiliac joint implantation or nonautologous tissue substitutes. The code appears to be a data classification error in the state and local procurement system, and activity under this code does not support a pursuit strategy focused on orthopedic device or implant supply.

The six recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington and include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office seeking independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach requesting surgical benefit carve-out program management through Centers of Excellence (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation procuring occupational medical surveillance for ferry system workers across 14 locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issuing an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (RFI 071626BNM, due September 25, 2026); Collier County Board of County Commissioners requesting Pharmacy Benefit Management services (RFP 25-8414, initially due April 9, 2026, but the date appears stale); and the County of Santa Clara Health System establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing across 13 categories (RFSQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity are materially misaligned.
