UNSPSC 85471927: Bypass cerebral ventricle to peritoneal cavity with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass cerebral ventricle to peritoneal cavity with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 00163K6

UNSPSC 85471927 Bypass cerebral ventricle to peritoneal cavity with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — a specific neurosurgical implant procedure — does not align with recent state and local contract activity posted under it. The most recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect medical evaluation, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs — none of which involve the procedure named in the code's title. This mismatch suggests either a classification error in source posting or a tagging artifact that does not reflect substantive procurement demand under the code's intended scope.

The six recent opportunities show issuing bodies across multiple state and local jurisdictions — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and County of Santa Clara Health System (California) — but none involves the neurosurgical implant or procedure referenced in the code name. Without recent opportunities that actually correspond to the code's stated commodity, state and local procurement professionals should treat this code as carrying limited current market signal and verify code assignment against their own opportunities before committing resources.
