UNSPSC 85724804: Insertion of spacer into right sacroiliac joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of spacer into right sacroiliac 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 0SH708Z

UNSPSC 85724804 Insertion of spacer into right sacroiliac joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—does not align with the state and local opportunities recently tagged to it. The recent solicitations posted under this code span medical record review and disability evaluation services, surgical benefit management and Centers of Excellence network coordination, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve sacroiliac joint spacer insertion or implantable medical device procurement.

The mismatch between the code's procedural specificity and the breadth of medical-services work appearing in recent opportunities suggests either miscoding at the source level or that this code is not actively used by state and local procurement offices for the medical device or procedure it nominally describes. Geographic activity across the recent postings spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), but these opportunities are not buying sacroiliac joint spacers or related orthopedic implants. State and local procurement under this code warrants close monitoring; the current activity level does not support a pursue decision.
