UNSPSC 85725917: Fusion of sacrococcygeal joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of sacrococcygeal joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0SG54KZ

UNSPSC 85725917 Fusion of sacrococcygeal joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—does not align with the state and local contract opportunities posted under it. Recent solicitations tagged to this code are purchasing occupational medical surveillance services, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for youth in custody. None of these activities involve sacrococcygeal fusion procedures or the procedural hardware and supplies that the code's name implies. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the tagging system or a systematic miscoding that has disconnected the UNSPSC taxonomy from procurement practice at these jurisdictions.

The jurisdictions issuing under this code span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation, Washington State Ferries), county health systems and probation departments (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County), city procurement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), and regional public agencies. Recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations, with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and proposals due October 16, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for a qualified vendor pool of temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories, with proposals due October 7, 2026. Given the disconnect between the code's procedural definition and actual procurement activity, this code does not represent a viable pursuit opportunity for vendors offering orthopedic implants, surgical instrumentation, or related procedural services.
