UNSPSC 85471825 Bypass cerebral ventricle to pleural cavity with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged to this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—do not align with the code's nominal scope of a specific neurosurgical procedure. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in source databases or that this Commodity code is not actively used by state and local buying offices to describe actual procurements.

The source records no state and local contract opportunities that genuinely describe procurement of bypass cerebral ventricle to pleural cavity procedures or related implantable devices. Without supporting evidence of active, correctly coded procurement activity, no geographic concentration, issuing-body pattern, or representative opportunity can be identified for this code.
