UNSPSC 85471928: Bypass cerebral ventricle to urinary tract 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 urinary tract 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 00163K7

UNSPSC 85471928 Bypass cerebral ventricle to urinary tract with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical implant procedure, but the most recent opportunities tagged under it — including independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations in Phoenix, surgical benefit carve-out programs in Long Beach, occupational medical surveillance for Washington State Ferries employees, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth in Harris County, pharmacy benefit management for Collier County, and temporary health professional staffing for Santa Clara Health System — are administrative healthcare services, benefits management, and staffing solicitations with no connection to the specific implant procedure named in the code.

State and local procurement offices appear to have applied this code to healthcare service procurements without regard to its narrowly defined implant scope. No opportunities reflect actual procurement of bypass cerebral ventricle procedures, implant devices, surgical kits, or related clinical supplies. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or a data classification error in the source. Unless your firm operates in occupational health surveillance, medical staffing networks, or healthcare benefits administration — the actual service categories appearing in recent opportunities — this code warrants no pursuit.
