UNSPSC 85725509: Excision of left sacroiliac joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left 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 0SB83ZZ

UNSPSC 85725509 Excision of left sacroiliac joint, percutaneous approach (Commodity) does not align with the state and local procurement activity recorded under this code. The recent opportunities tagged to this Commodity code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which describe surgical procedures or orthopedic interventions. The code appears to be a medical procedure classification that state and local procurement systems are misapplying or conflating with broader medical services and staffing categories, resulting in a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual buying activity.

The issuing bodies across recent opportunities include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), a city retirement system (Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards), and a city health system (Long Beach). Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations are the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, covering 14 statewide ferry locations) and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years). These opportunities signal active state and local procurement in medical evaluation, staffing, and benefits administration, but not in the surgical procedure line this Commodity code nominally represents. Firms pursuing state and local work in occupational health or medical staffing may find traction under this code despite the apparent taxonomic error, though reclassification to a broader medical services or staffing code would better serve visibility and matching.
