UNSPSC 85521415: Restriction of intracranial vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of intracranial vein with extraluminal device, 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 05VL4CZ

UNSPSC 85521415 Restriction of intracranial vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach, Commodity code, shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its medical-device nominal scope. The six most-recent opportunities posted under this code between July and September 2026—covering independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—represent administrative health services, care coordination, and workforce procurement rather than neurosurgical devices or procedures. The code appears to have been applied inconsistently or incorrectly by the issuing jurisdictions; none of these solicitations involve intracranial venous intervention equipment or techniques.

The mismatch between code classification and actual procurement content suggests either systemic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or a coding assignment unrelated to the work being bought. Business development professionals evaluating this code should verify the UNSPSC mapping with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities or assume the code is inactive for state and local medical-device procurement. A search under higher-level medical-device or health-services codes may yield more relevant and properly classified opportunities.
