UNSPSC 85725424: Fusion of lumbosacral joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, anterior column, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of lumbosacral joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, anterior column, 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 0SG33KJ

UNSPSC 85725424, Fusion of lumbosacral joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, anterior column, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the six recent state and local opportunities tagged to it encompass disability medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational health surveillance, youth detention medical services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the code's stated scope of a particular spinal fusion technique. The mismatch suggests either a systemic tagging error across multiple jurisdictions or a fundamental misclassification of this code within the source data itself.

The recent opportunities do reflect genuine state and local health and human services procurement activity: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services for public safety disability determinations (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach requested proposals for a surgical benefit carve-out program covering Centers of Excellence for knee, hip, spine, and oncology procedures (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation sought occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). However, none of these solicitations target spinal fusion procedures or the specific surgical technique this code describes. The issuing bodies span state departments, county human resources and health systems, and municipal retirement offices across Arizona, California, and Washington, but no pattern of procurement under this code's actual scope is evident from the source data provided.
