UNSPSC 85471131 Extirpation of matter from medulla oblongata, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity. The code's medical-procedure nomenclature does not align with what state and local governments are actually procuring under this taxonomy entry. Recent opportunities posted against this code include independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal health plans, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. None of these solicitations involve the specific neurological procedure the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies span a city retirement office (Phoenix), municipal governments (Long Beach), a state transportation department (Washington), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County, Texas), a county government (Collier County, Florida), and a county health system (Santa Clara County, California).

Geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. No single jurisdiction appears more than once in recent postings. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 five-year maximum), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference August 31, 2026). The code's assignment to these opportunities appears to reflect a data-entry mismatch rather than accurate taxonomy mapping; procurement professionals should verify scope against actual solicitation documents before pursuing opportunities listed under this code.
