UNSPSC 85725637: Revision of spacer in lumbosacral joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of spacer in lumbosacral joint, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0SW348Z

UNSPSC 85725637, Revision of spacer in lumbosacral joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific spinal surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted under it are instead soliciting independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical care networks, emergency medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the code's stated scope of a lumbosacral joint spacer procedure. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source material or an artifact of how these jurisdictions tag procurements. State and local government procurement offices appear to have applied this code incorrectly to health-services contracting activities that do not match the procedure-specific commodity definition.

The opportunities themselves span multiple issuing bodies and geographies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). The largest opportunity is Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services with approximately $8.7 million in historical annual spending and a three-year contract term beginning January 1, 2026; the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services carries a $750,000 five-year contract ceiling commencing February 3, 2027; and the Washington State Ferries' RFP for occupational medical surveillance spans 14 locations across the state with a two-year initial term and options to extend. Because the code does not meaningfully describe state and local purchasing under it, this category warrants observation rather than active pursuit unless and until the source material reflects a sustained pattern of relevant medical device or procedure-specific procurements.
