UNSPSC 85473728: Extraction of acoustic nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extraction of acoustic nerve, 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 00DN4ZZ

UNSPSC 85473728 Extraction of acoustic nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the most-recent opportunities posted under this code involve independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which align with acoustic nerve extraction procedures. State and local procurement offices appear to have tagged these opportunities with this code in error; the code does not surface active buying for the procedure it nominally describes.

The mismatch between the code's scope and the posted opportunities suggests either a data-entry error in the source system or a fundamental misapplication of UNSPSC taxonomy at the issuing bodies. Firms pursuing state and local work under this code should verify the actual scope of work directly with issuing bodies before investing in proposal development, as the code's recent procurement signal is not reliable.
