UNSPSC 85471411: Extirpation of matter from brain, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from brain, open 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 00C00ZZ

UNSPSC 85471411 Extirpation of matter from brain, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal medical scope — neurosurgical extraction procedures — does not align with the opportunities recently tagged under it in public procurement systems.

The recent opportunities attributed to this code span occupational health surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), independent medical evaluations for retirement determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit program management (City of Long Beach), temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System), and juvenile detention healthcare services (Harris County). None of these activities involve neurosurgical procedures or brain matter extraction. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in source systems or use of the UNSPSC code as a catch-all medical services classifier. State and local buyers pursuing genuine neurosurgical contracting — whether for hospital capital equipment, surgical staffing, or procedure-specific vendor services — are not currently visible under this code. A business development professional evaluating this code should verify actual demand through direct outreach to state health departments, hospital systems, and academic medical centers rather than relying on public procurement records.
