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 0SP73JZ

UNSPSC 85725229 Removal of synthetic substitute from right sacroiliac joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure involving removal of a synthetic implant from the sacroiliac joint using a minimally invasive approach. However, the most-recent-state-local-contract-opportunities block contains six recent solicitations from state and local bodies, none of which seek this specific procedure or any direct orthopedic surgical services aligned with the code's scope. The opportunities span disability medical evaluations (Phoenix Retirement Office), surgical carve-out benefit programs (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty care for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations target procurement of sacroiliac joint removal procedures or implant extraction services.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual opportunities suggests either a tagging error in the procurement system or that state and local bodies do not actively solicit orthopedic surgical procedures under this code tier. State and local governments typically procure healthcare services through health plan contracts, employee benefits programs, or facility-based medical service agreements rather than through procedure-specific codes. If your firm pursues orthopedic surgical services in the state and local market, monitor higher-level codes in the 85000000 Healthcare services family or 81000000 Professional services segment for relevant activity, but expect limited direct procurement of individual surgical procedures at the commodity level through public solicitations.
