UNSPSC 85473616: Drainage of acoustic nerve, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of acoustic nerve, 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 009N3ZZ

UNSPSC 85473616 Drainage of acoustic nerve, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific neurosurgical procedure, yet the six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington involve occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out networks, temporary clinical staffing, and juvenile detention healthcare — none of which involve drainage of the acoustic nerve or percutaneous neurosurgical intervention. The mismatch suggests either miscoding at the issuing-body level or that this code is not actively used by state and local procurement offices for work they are currently buying.

The recent opportunities that carry this code designation address entirely different service lines: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office is seeking disability medical record review and independent medical examinations ($750,000 over five years); the City of Long Beach is requesting surgical Centers of Excellence network management; the Washington State Department of Transportation is procuring occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department is gathering information on emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth; Collier County is requesting pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 employees; and Santa Clara Health System is building a vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across 13 specialty categories. These solicitations carry no relevance to the acoustic nerve drainage procedure nominally described by the code. State and local procurement under this code designation lacks a coherent commodity or service line; bidders should treat this code as inactive for practical pursuit purposes and verify any future opportunities against the actual scope of work before investing in response preparation.
