UNSPSC 85725001: Extirpation of matter from left sacroiliac joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from left 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 0SC80ZZ

UNSPSC 85725001 Extirpation of matter from left sacroiliac joint, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal title describes a surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not align with orthopedic surgery or any surgical intervention. Instead, the recent solicitations focus on occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out administration — none of which involve sacroiliac joint procedures or tissue removal. The code shows little relevant recent activity that matches its stated scope.

The six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 span occupational health surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation Ferries), disability pension medical evaluations (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), surgical benefits administration (City of Long Beach), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), emergency and specialty care for youth in custody (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and temporary health professional staffing pools (County of Santa Clara Health System). The issuing bodies represent state departments, counties, cities, and special-purpose health systems rather than surgical providers or facilities. Geographic distribution spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. The mismatch between the code's surgical procedure description and the actual work solicited suggests this code may have been applied in error by these jurisdictions, or the code's scope in the UNSPSC taxonomy does not reflect how state and local procurement systems currently use it.
