UNSPSC 85725255: Removal of synthetic substitute from lumbosacral joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from lumbosacral joint, 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 0SP33JZ

UNSPSC 85725255 Removal of synthetic substitute from lumbosacral joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The opportunities posted to this code span independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty emergency services for detained youth, and hospital-based acute care—none of which concern orthopedic joint procedures or the lumbosacral spine. This coding mismatch suggests the code sees little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.

The issuing bodies soliciting under the code's recent postings include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal governments (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County), and county procurement divisions (Collier County). The geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, proposals due October 16, 2026) to review medical records and coordinate disability examinations for approximately 75 annual pension benefit applications at a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years, and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system employees (RFP20260825, proposals due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026) covering baseline and periodic medical examinations across 14 Washington locations.
