UNSPSC 85472011: Insertion of infusion device into cerebral ventricle, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of infusion device into cerebral ventricle, percutaneous endoscopic 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 00H643Z

UNSPSC 85472011 Insertion of infusion device into cerebral ventricle, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedural insertion technique, yet recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect healthcare administration, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefits management, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which involve the placement of ventricular access devices. The mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either systematic miscoding or a taxonomy entry that does not align with how state and local agencies currently classify health system procurements.

The six recent opportunities span disparate healthcare service categories across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, and no single jurisdiction or service type repeats. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office seeks independent medical evaluation and disability record review (RFP, due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach is purchasing a surgical procedure carve-out program for Centers of Excellence (RFP, due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation is contracting for occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (RFP, due October 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation issued an RFI for specialty medical services for detained youth (due September 25, 2026); Collier County is seeking pharmacy benefit management administration (RFP, due April 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across multiple specialties (due October 7, 2026). The code appears to be a labeling error or artifact rather than an active procurement category for this service type.
