UNSPSC 85472718: Excision of spinal meninges, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of spinal 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 00BT0ZZ

UNSPSC 85472718 Excision of spinal meninges, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this classification span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve spinal surgical procedures. The mismatch suggests either tagging error in the source database or that this code is being misapplied to procurement records unrelated to its intended scope. State and local governments show no recent purchasing activity that matches the code's stated scope.

The issuing bodies capturing these misfiled opportunities include county corrections departments (Muscogee County, Georgia), county procurement and human resources divisions (Collier County, Florida; Monroe County, Florida), county behavioral health services (San Mateo County, California), and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica, California). Geographic activity spans Florida, Georgia, and California. Representative recent solicitations include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members (closed April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services (due April 16, 2026). These records reflect healthcare service contracting at the county level, not surgical procedure procurement, indicating that the code assignment to this activity is erroneous and this code does not represent a viable pursuit avenue for state and local market activity.
