UNSPSC 85471507: Drainage of cerebral hemisphere with drainage device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of cerebral hemisphere with drainage device, 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 009730Z

UNSPSC 85471507 Drainage of cerebral hemisphere with drainage device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with no meaningful recent activity in state and local procurement. The six recent opportunities tagged to this code—independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal health plans, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—bear no clinical or procedural relationship to neurological drainage devices or percutaneous neurosurgical intervention. State and local procurement offices do not purchase this class of medical device or procedure, and the code appears to be a data-quality artifact in the state and local taxonomy rather than an active procurement category.

Vendors targeting state and local opportunities should treat this code as inactive. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the unrelated medical-service solicitations in the recent-opportunities block suggests either systematic miscoding or administrative error in the source systems. A vendor equipped to supply or perform drainage-device implantation or related neurosurgical services should verify code assignment through direct contact with issuing agencies before pursuing work under this designation.
