UNSPSC 85472000: Cerebral ventricles spinal canal-percutaneous endoscopic approach

This class includes one or more of 22 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the cerebral ventricles and spinal canal, percutaneous endoscopic approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 00.

UNSPSC 85472000 Cerebral ventricles spinal canal-percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Class code with minimal alignment to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a neurosurgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect healthcare services procurement across clinical, administrative, and support functions—not the specialized neurological interventions the code name implies. State and local governments do not appear to be soliciting percutaneous endoscopic neurosurgical procedures under this classification; instead, issuers have used it to tag broader healthcare management contracts.

Recent activity shows diverse issuing bodies across multiple states. The Muscogee County Prison in Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government Finance Department Purchasing Division) posted an RFP due May 15, 2026, for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services with a current monthly cost of $95,537.71 and annual historical spending context. Collier County, Florida issued an RFP on April 9, 2026, for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members with annual historical pharmacy spending around $8.7 million. Monroe County, Florida issued an RFP posted March 14, 2026 (due April 16, 2026), for virtual primary care and 24/7 urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members. San Mateo County, California issued an RFP on February 25, 2026, for a mental health services peer support pilot project with $580,000 in total funding. Santa Monica Fire Department in California posted an RFP in February 2026 seeking a fire department medical director. The geographic spread spans California, Florida, and Georgia, with activity concentrated in county-level and municipal healthcare administration rather than specialized surgical procurement. This code's use for general healthcare services contracting appears disconnected from its nominal classification scope.
