UNSPSC 85471138: Release basal ganglia, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release basal ganglia, 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 00N83ZZ

UNSPSC 85471138 Release basal ganglia, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that appears to have minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve neurosurgical procedures or basal ganglia intervention. The code's nominal scope does not match the work state and local governments are actually buying under it, and the tagging appears to reflect a classification error rather than genuine procurement demand for the procedure itself.

The opportunities that have been tagged under this code originate from diverse issuing bodies including county health departments (Collier County, Monroe County, San Mateo County), municipal fire departments (Santa Monica), corrections agencies (Muscogee County Prison), and consolidated city governments (Columbus Consolidated Government). The geographic spread includes Florida, Georgia, California, and the broader United States. Recent solicitations include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members (due April 9, 2026), Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for 2,300 county members (due April 16, 2026), San Mateo County's RFP for peer support for peer workers under a Mental Health Services Act Innovation pilot project (due July 2, 2025), and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP for a fire department medical director (due October 16, 2025). The code shows no recent activity genuinely related to basal ganglia release procedures or other neurosurgical services in the state and local market.
