UNSPSC 85471530: Resection of cerebral hemisphere, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of cerebral hemisphere, 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 00T73ZZ

UNSPSC 85471530 Resection of cerebral hemisphere, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific neurosurgical procedure; however, recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not reflect surgical intervention. Instead, the posted opportunities reveal that issuers are tagging medical evaluation, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs under this code—none of which involve the resection procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch between the code's surgical scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscoding by issuing offices or inconsistent application of taxonomy across jurisdictions. The few opportunities that appear here span medical administration and benefits management rather than operative neurosurgery.

The source shows minimal relevant recent activity under the code's stated scope. Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office seeking independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations (RFP, due October 16, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation requesting occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system employees across 14 Washington locations (RFP, due October 9, 2026); the City of Long Beach soliciting a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program for its PPO plan (RFP, due October 7, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (proposal due October 7, 2026). None of these solicitations involve neurosurgical resection. State and local buyers do not appear to be sourcing the procedure described by the code at present.
