UNSPSC 85724811: Insertion of internal fixation device into sacrococcygeal joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of internal fixation device into sacrococcygeal 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 0SH504Z

UNSPSC 85724811, Insertion of internal fixation device into sacrococcygeal joint, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal clinical scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect surgical device procurement or orthopedic implant supply; instead, they span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, independent medical evaluations for disability determination, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These solicitations are fundamentally administrative, clinical staffing, or benefit-management services rather than procurement of internal fixation devices or orthopedic surgical supplies.

The geographic spread of recent activity is dispersed across Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas, with no dominant buyer pattern. The Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, RFP due October 9, 2026), City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent disability medical evaluations, RFP due October 16, 2026), City of Long Beach (surgery benefit carve-out program, RFP due October 7, 2026), County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing, RFP due October 7, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management, RFP due April 9, 2026), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, RFI due September 25, 2026) represent the issuing bodies. The code appears to carry incorrect UNSPSC classification; the posted opportunities suggest the code has been misapplied to health services administration and benefits management rather than orthopedic surgical devices or implants. State and local procurement activity under this code warrant close scrutiny for classification accuracy before pursuing opportunity development.
