UNSPSC 85724828: Insertion of infusion device into lumbar vertebral joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of infusion device into lumbar vertebral 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 0SH003Z

UNSPSC 85724828 Insertion of infusion device into lumbar vertebral joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities posted under this code— spanning independent medical evaluations for pension benefit determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—bear no connection to spinal infusion device procurement or orthopedic surgical procedures. The code's nominal scope (a specific lumbar spine surgical intervention) does not align with the health-care administration, staffing, and benefits-management services actually being solicited by state and local bodies under this taxonomy entry.

The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the UNSPSC assignment or that this code does not reflect current state and local procurement practice. No device manufacturers, medical device distributors, surgical-supply vendors, or orthopedic implant suppliers appear in the recent opportunity record. Without evidence of actual procurement demand for lumbar infusion devices or related hardware under this code, the category warrants monitoring rather than active pursuit at this time.
