UNSPSC 85473516: Drainage of acoustic nerve, 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 009N0ZZ

UNSPSC 85473516 Drainage of acoustic nerve, open approach is a Commodity code that does not correspond to any recent state and local procurement activity in the source material. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 involve independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with neurosurgical drainage procedures. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical intervention, not the administrative, occupational health, or benefit-management medical services that appear in current state and local solicitations.

No relevant recent opportunities exist under this code. The mismatch between the code's clinical designation and the administrative or occupational medical work tagged to it suggests either a classification error in the source data or that this particular surgical procedure is not a material procurement category for state and local governments. Bidders should verify the actual UNSPSC coding before pursuing activity in this space.
