This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of internal fixation device into lumbosacral joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach.

UNSPSC 85725827, Insertion of internal fixation device into lumbosacral joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows no alignment between its clinical procedure name and the state and local opportunities recently posted under it. The six recent solicitations tagged to this code encompass independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefits for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve orthopedic implants, spinal fusion devices, or surgical procedures matching the code's stated scope. The issuing bodies reflect typical municipal and county health procurement: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. This code appears to serve as a catch-all for health services contracting rather than as a device or procedure-specific taxonomy entry.

Geographic activity spans Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington State (14 ferry terminal locations), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years) supporting approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications for public safety pensions; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFQ for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) covering baseline, periodic, and exit examinations across 14 ferry locations under Washington State regulatory requirements; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive, multiple-award). Bidders should verify code accuracy before pursuing opportunities under this entry, as the procedural terminology does not reflect current buying patterns.
