UNSPSC 85725818: Insertion of spacer into sacrococcygeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of spacer into sacrococcygeal 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 0SH548Z

UNSPSC 85725818 Insertion of spacer into sacrococcygeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic 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, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical carve-out networks, and emergency services for detained youth — none of which involve sacrococcygeal joint spacer insertion. The mismatch between the code's narrow clinical scope and the diversity of medical services actually being procured suggests either miscoding at the source or a fundamental disconnect between UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local agencies tag health services opportunities.

The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), counties (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), cities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), with procurement vehicles ranging from RFPs to RFQs and RFIs. Geographic spread spans Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP with a $750,000 five-year contract ceiling (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP across 14 ferry locations statewide (due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing RFQ establishing a multiple-award qualified vendor pool for ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). This code does not appear to drive procurement activity in its stated commodity domain and warrants verification or recoding before business development investment.
