UNSPSC 85725737: Removal of spacer from coccygeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of spacer from coccygeal 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 0SP648Z

UNSPSC 85725737 Removal of spacer from coccygeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, yet the most recent opportunities posted under it involve occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs, youth detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve removal of spinal hardware. The mismatch suggests the code was applied incorrectly to these opportunities or has been repurposed in state and local procurement taxonomies to capture broader medical administration and workforce services that fall outside the procedure's literal scope.

The issuing bodies include county human resources departments (Collier County, Santa Clara County), city retirement offices (Phoenix), state departments of transportation (Washington), county juvenile probation (Harris County), and county health systems. Geographic activity spans California, Arizona, Washington, and Texas in the recent block, with no concentration in a single state or region. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) supporting 75 annual disability benefit applications across pension boards; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations statewide (due October 9, 2026); the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-outs managing Centers of Excellence networks for an Anthem PPO plan covering approximately 3,800 active employees and retirees (due October 7, 2026); Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual spending near $8.7 million (due April 9, 2026); and Santa Clara County Health System's multiple-award vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The divergence between the code's surgical title and the actual work being bought suggests this Commodity code is not a reliable signal for medical device or orthopedic procedure supply opportunities in state and local procurement.
