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 0SG00KJ

UNSPSC 85724954 Fusion of lumbar vertebral joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, anterior column, open approach is a Commodity code that has no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific spinal fusion surgical procedure, but none of the recent state and local solicitations identified under it involve orthopedic spine surgery procurement or contracting.

The posted opportunities instead reflect medical services procurement tangentially related to the code's clinical classification: Phoenix seeking independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations; Long Beach soliciting surgical carve-out benefit management for multiple procedure types including spine through Centers of Excellence; Washington State Ferries requesting occupational medical surveillance; Harris County pursuing emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; Collier County issuing an RFP for pharmacy benefit management; and Santa Clara Health System establishing a vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories. None of these solicitations align with purchasing spine fusion implants, devices, or surgical procedures themselves. This code shows no activity in its actual commodity scope and appears to be a miscategorization artifact in the source data.
