UNSPSC 85473739: Removal of infusion device from cranial nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of infusion device from cranial 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 00PE43Z

UNSPSC 85473739 Removal of infusion device from cranial nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the most recent opportunities posted under this code involve independent medical evaluations, surgery benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve removal of infusion devices from cranial nerves or percutaneous endoscopic procedures. The mismatch suggests either a UNSPSC coding error in the source data or that this code is being used as a catch-all for healthcare administration and staffing services rather than the procedure it nominally describes.

State and local issuers posting under this code include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Recent opportunities span RFPs for independent disability medical evaluations due October 16, 2026 (Phoenix, $750,000 over five years); surgical benefit carve-out programs due October 7, 2026 (Long Beach, Anthem PPO); occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026 (Washington State Ferries, 14 locations statewide); an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth due September 25, 2026 (Harris County); pharmacy benefit management due April 9, 2026 (Collier County, approximately $8.7 million annually); and temporary health professional staffing pools across ancillary clinical categories due October 7, 2026 (Santa Clara County). The code shows activity across the Southwest, West Coast, and Texas, but the diversity of services and the disconnect from the code's nominal scope suggest this classification warrants clarification before pursuing opportunities listed under it.
