UNSPSC 85473509: Drainage of olfactory nerve with drainage device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of olfactory nerve with drainage device, 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 009F00Z

UNSPSC 85473509 Drainage of olfactory nerve with drainage device, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's technical medical nomenclature—describing a specific neurosurgical procedure—does not align with what state and local governments are actually purchasing in the recent opportunities record. The six most recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code solicit independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing pools, and specialty medical services for detained youth. None of these activities involve drainage procedures or olfactory nerve interventions. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source data or that this code is being used as a catchall for medical services procurement outside its intended scope.

The issuing bodies span county human resources and health agencies, a state department of transportation, a county juvenile probation department, and county health systems across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The actual work being solicited—benefits administration, occupational health compliance, clinical staffing, and medical evaluation services—falls outside the procedural surgical domain the code nominally describes. No evidence supports that state and local governments are procuring olfactory nerve drainage procedures or related implantable devices under this code in current market activity.
