UNSPSC 85471208: Drainage of basal ganglia with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of basal ganglia with drainage device, 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 009840Z

UNSPSC 85471208 Drainage of basal ganglia with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal scope. The six state and local opportunities posted between July and September 2026 and tagged with this code do not involve neurosurgical drainage procedures or related medical devices. Instead, they describe independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), surgical benefit carve-out networks for government employees (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and temporary health professional staffing placement (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations reference the neurological, neurosurgical, or device-based work the code nominally describes, suggesting a systematic mislabeling of opportunities at the point of posting rather than genuine procurement activity in the code's intended commodity space.

State and local buyers posting under this code span county health systems, county benefits administration, state transportation departments, and county human services agencies across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The geographic scatter and the uniform disconnect between the code's title and the actual work being solicited indicate that this code is not a reliable signal for business development planning. Procurement professionals should verify the UNSPSC classification directly with issuing bodies before committing resources to opportunities posted under this tag.
