UNSPSC 85472902: Destruction of dura mater, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of dura mater, 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 00524ZZ

UNSPSC 85472902 Destruction of dura mater, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code describes a specific neurosurgical procedure; however, the recent opportunities tagged under this code do not reflect neurosurgical procurement. Instead, the opportunities span independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs for Centers of Excellence, occupational medical surveillance, specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the code's nominal scope of a particular surgical technique. The mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error or that state and local purchasing offices are using this code to flag health-services contracting broadly rather than procurement of this specific surgical procedure.

The source records no solicitations for neurosurgical services, dural repair, or related procedural support under the code's intended scope. Given the disconnect between the code definition and the opportunities tagged beneath it, this code does not provide actionable procurement signals for firms offering neurosurgical services or related medical device and support services to state and local health systems.
