UNSPSC 85725142: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lumbar vertebral disc, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lumbar vertebral disc, percutaneous 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 0SW23KZ

UNSPSC 85725142 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in lumbar vertebral disc, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its clinical scope. The six state and local opportunities posted between July and September 2026 and tagged under this code instead solicit independent medical evaluation services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve lumbar vertebral disc procedures or tissue substitutes. The code appears to be a medical procedure classification that state and local procurement offices are using incorrectly or as a catch-all for health services solicitations.

Given the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited, this code presents limited opportunity for vendors specializing in intervertebral disc replacement or biomaterial orthopedic devices. Business development professionals targeting state and local government buyers in spinal surgery products should verify whether their target jurisdictions use alternative UNSPSC classifications for orthopedic implants and spine care, or rely on direct outreach to health systems' procurement and clinical engineering departments rather than code-based opportunity screening.
