UNSPSC 85725447 Fusion of 2 or more lumbar vertebral joints with interbody fusion device, anterior approach, anterior column, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows no relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The six most-recent opportunities tagged to this code—independent medical evaluations for public safety pension boards, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—are all administrative healthcare procurement and workforce services unrelated to spinal fusion surgery or orthopedic device provision. The mismatch between the code's clinical-procedure specificity and the actual opportunities suggests the code may be incorrectly applied in state and local procurement systems, or the tagged opportunities use broad medical codes that do not reflect their actual scope. State and local buyers do not appear to be sourcing spinal fusion procedures or associated implantable devices through this code at present.
