UNSPSC 85724735: Removal of synthetic substitute from lumbosacral joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from lumbosacral 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 0SP30JZ

UNSPSC 85724735 Removal of synthetic substitute from lumbosacral joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not align with the recent opportunities posted under this code in state and local procurement channels. The most-recent-opportunities block contains six solicitations tagged to this code, none of which involve lumbosacral joint procedures or related orthopedic surgery; instead, they span independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefits for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these services or products fall within the code's stated scope.

The mismatch between the code's definition and the tagged opportunities reflects either a tagging error in source systems or a fundamental misalignment in how this particular Commodity code is indexed by state and local procurement offices. For firms pursuing orthopedic surgical procedures or hospital-based joint replacement services through state and local channels, this code does not surface relevant activity at present. The opportunities actually posted under the code address broader health plan administration, staffing, and occupational medicine—activities that belong in other sections of the UNSPSC taxonomy.
