UNSPSC 85472807: Drainage of dura mater, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of dura mater, 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 00923ZZ

UNSPSC 85472807 Drainage of dura mater, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific neurosurgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical center-of-excellence carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations involve dura mater drainage procedures or percutaneous neurosurgical interventions. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a data classification error upstream; the code does not appear to reflect a coherent procurement category in current state and local practice.

The issuing bodies include a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and county commissioners' offices (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), municipal pension boards (City of Phoenix), and municipal employee benefit programs (City of Long Beach). Recent activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with proposals due October 9, 2026 (RFQ/RFP format); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations due October 16, 2026 with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories due October 7, 2026. Given the absence of procurement activity aligned with the code's stated scope, this code warrants close scrutiny before pursuing opportunities tagged under it.
