UNSPSC 85472716: Excision of cerebral meninges, open 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 00B10ZZ

UNSPSC 85472716 Excision of cerebral meninges, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The recent procurement activity reflects administrative health services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve surgical procedures or direct clinical service delivery of the type the code nominally describes.

The mismatch is systematic across all six opportunities in the source. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations; the City of Long Beach requested a surgical procedure carve-out benefit manager for employee health plans; Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; Collier County sought pharmacy benefit management; and Santa Clara Health System established a staffing pool for temporary ancillary clinical positions. None involves surgical procedure performance. The issuing bodies span municipal governments (Phoenix, Long Beach), state transportation departments, county governments, and health systems. Geographic activity appears concentrated in California, Arizona, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no single state dominating. The code shows minimal signal for surgical procedure procurement at the state and local level and appears to have been tagged to opportunities outside its actual scope of work.
