UNSPSC 85725506: Extirpation of matter from lumbosacral joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter 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 0SC33ZZ

UNSPSC 85725506 Extirpation of matter from lumbosacral joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it reflect administrative medical services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which involve direct surgical intervention on the lumbosacral joint. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or a data-classification artifact rather than active procurement demand for the surgical service itself.

The six recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas jurisdictions, including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations, $750,000 over five years, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach (RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits and Centers of Excellence management, proposals due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation for occupational medical surveillance (RFP with pre-bid conference August 31, 2026, due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, due September 25, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (RFP for pharmacy benefit management covering $8.7 million in historical annual spending, due April 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary categories, due October 7, 2026). Because these opportunities are substantively unrelated to orthopedic surgical procedures, the code appears inactive for its nominal scope in current state and local markets.
