UNSPSC 85725934: Fusion of lumbosacral joint with autologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, posterior column, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of lumbosacral joint with autologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, posterior column, 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 0SG3471

UNSPSC 85725934 (Fusion of lumbosacral joint with autologous tissue substitute, posterior approach, posterior column, percutaneous endoscopic approach) is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code describes a specific surgical procedure performed at a hospital or surgical center, yet the recent opportunities tagged to this code span independent medical evaluation services for public-safety pension boards, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve the lumbosacral fusion procedure itself; the mismatch suggests either miscoding in the source data or use of the code as a proxy for broader medical services procurement when more appropriate family-level or class-level codes exist.

The issuing bodies across the six recent opportunities include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health benefit purchasers (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county human resources and health benefit consortiums (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara). Geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out services through Centers of Excellence (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). The code as tagged does not align with the work actually being procured; vendors should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities listed under this UNSPSC.
