UNSPSC 85724578 Supplement lumbar vertebral joint with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure for spinal fusion—does not match the recent opportunities tagged under this UNSPSC identifier.

The six most recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation, Washington State Ferries), independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), surgery benefit carve-out programs for government employee health plans (City of Long Beach), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and temporary health professional staffing pools (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations involve orthopedic implants, spinal fusion procedures, tissue substitutes, or surgical supplies. The code appears to have been applied to state and local health services contracting and employee benefits administration rather than to medical device procurement. State and local buyers under this code designation are currently focused on staffing, benefit administration, and clinical service delivery, not on the acquisition of implantable medical devices. Pursuit of opportunities under this code as currently tagged is not advisable without confirmation that future solicitations will address the actual scope the code describes.
