UNSPSC 85725831: Insertion of facet replacement spinal stabilization device into lumbar vertebral joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of facet replacement spinal stabilization device into lumbar vertebral 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 0SH04DZ

UNSPSC 85725831 Insertion of facet replacement spinal stabilization device into lumbar vertebral joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a highly specific surgical implant procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical center-of-excellence carve-out programs, youth detention healthcare services, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve spinal implant devices or percutaneous endoscopic procedures. The issuing bodies include Arizona municipal pension boards, California cities, a state department of transportation, county health systems, and a county juvenile probation department. This mismatch suggests either miscoding at the source or that state and local procurement databases are applying this code to administrative healthcare services rather than surgical implant procurement.

The geographic spread spans Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Washington State, Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County), with no obvious concentration. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations (responses due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations (responses due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (responses due October 7, 2026). Given the absence of any recent opportunities that involve procurement of spinal implant devices, vendors in that market should verify code assignment with the issuing body before pursuing opportunities tagged to 85725831.
