This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from subarachnoid space, percutaneous endoscopic approach.

UNSPSC 85472923 Extirpation of matter from subarachnoid space, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a neurosurgical procedure—does not align with the recent opportunities posted under it, which center on occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, and surgical benefit carve-out programs. State and local governments are not soliciting the specific procedural service the code names; instead, the code appears to have been misapplied to broader health services contracting.

The recent opportunities span multiple jurisdictions and issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Notable solicitations include the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026, the City of Phoenix independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026 with a $750,000 maximum contract value over five years, and the Collier County pharmacy benefit management RFP with historical spending of approximately $8.7 million annually. Given the mismatch between the code's procedural name and the health services contracting being posted under it, vendors evaluating this code should verify that issuing bodies are tagging opportunities correctly before committing resources to pursuit.
