UNSPSC 85501317: Extirpation of matter from intracranial artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from intracranial artery, 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 03CG3ZZ

UNSPSC 85501317 Extirpation of matter from intracranial artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities posted under this code — including independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — are unrelated to intracranial vascular procedures. The mismatch suggests these solicitations were tagged with an incorrect UNSPSC code in the issuing jurisdiction's classification system rather than reflecting genuine demand for neurovascular intervention services in the state and local market.

State and local procurement offices rarely solicit neurosurgical procedures as standalone line items; such services are typically embedded within broader health benefit plans, hospital service agreements, or correctional health contracts managed by medical vendors or integrated delivery networks. No evidence in the recent-opportunities block shows any jurisdiction purchasing intracranial artery extirpation services directly, whether as a carve-out benefit, a specialty referral network, or a standalone clinical capability.
