UNSPSC 85724808: Insertion of internal fixation device into coccygeal joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of internal fixation device into coccygeal 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 0SH604Z

UNSPSC 85724808 Insertion of internal fixation device into coccygeal joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities tagged with this code involve independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with orthopedic surgical fixation devices or related implants. The code's nominal scope addresses a narrow surgical procedure and implant category, but the issuing bodies and work solicited under the code's present tag do not reflect procurement of internal fixation devices or related medical devices.

The mismatch suggests either miscoding within state and local procurement systems or that the code is not actively used for its intended commodity purpose in current state and local markets. Vendors pursuing state and local opportunities in orthopedic or surgical device supply should verify the correct UNSPSC coding before responding to RFPs or RFQs, and should monitor whether this code develops meaningful activity in the near term.
