UNSPSC 85725502: Extirpation of matter from right sacroiliac joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right sacroiliac 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 0SC73ZZ

UNSPSC 85725502 Extirpation of matter 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 specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent state and local solicitations posted under this code do not align with that scope. Instead, the posted opportunities cover independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve percutaneous sacroiliac joint procedures or surgical intervention at that anatomical site. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the posting systems or that this code is being used as a catch-all category by issuing bodies for broader health services procurement when a more precise code would be more appropriate.

The recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies including city retirement systems (City of Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation departments (Harris County), county health systems (County of Santa Clara), and county commissioners (Collier County), with activity concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. No single jurisdiction appears as a repeat buyer under this code in the recent record, and the geographic distribution reflects dispersed state and local health and benefits administration rather than a concentrated market. The absence of opportunities specifically addressing the code's nominal orthopedic surgical procedure indicates this code is not a meaningful acquisition target for firms pursuing state and local work in that clinical area.
