UNSPSC 85763050: Alteration of lower back with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of lower back with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous 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 0W0L37Z

UNSPSC 85763050, Alteration of lower back with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code nominally identifying a specific spinal surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code does not align with surgical intervention. The opportunities posted against this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, and surgical carve-out benefit programs for employee health plans—none of which involve spinal surgery or tissue-substitute procedures. The disconnect between the code's clinical specificity and the actual work being solicited suggests either systematic misclassification in state and local procurement systems or that this code is being used as a catch-all for health services procurement without regard to procedure-level granularity. State and local buyers posting under this code include county health systems (Santa Clara County), county human resources and benefits departments (Collier County, City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice departments (Harris County), and municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix).

Recent opportunities cluster in California, Arizona, Washington, and Florida. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office issued RFP RTMRFP26001 (due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services supporting pension disability determinations, with a five-year contract ceiling of $750,000. The County of Santa Clara Health System posted RFSQHHSFY270052 (due October 7, 2026) establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories on a non-exclusive, multiple-award basis. The Washington State Department of Transportation issued RFP20260825 (due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance services across fourteen ferry system locations, with a two-year base term and five optional one-year extensions. Collier County Board of County Commissioners solicited pharmacy benefit management services (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026) with historical annual spending of approximately $8.7 million. The City of Long Beach requested proposals for a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) targeting Centers of Excellence networks for specialized procedures. This code shows no decision-relevant activity aligned with its stated commodity definition.
