UNSPSC 85471717: Revision of neurostimulator lead in cerebral ventricle, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of neurostimulator lead in cerebral ventricle, external 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 00W6XMZ

UNSPSC 85471717 Revision of neurostimulator lead in cerebral ventricle, external approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. Recent opportunities tagged to this code—independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out programs (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System)—address healthcare administration, staffing, and benefits management, not neurosurgical device procurement or implant revision procedures. The code's nominal scope—replacement or revision of a specific cerebroventricular neurostimulator lead—does not align with the administrative and staffing services appearing in the recent opportunity set.

The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington; however, none of the recent opportunities involves the specialized neurosurgical equipment or implant procedure the code is designed to describe. The mismatch between the code classification and the actual solicitation content suggests either miscoding on the part of the issuing bodies or that neurostimulator device procurement occurs outside the tagged UNSPSC category in state and local contracting. No relevant recent opportunities support active pursuit under this code at this time.
