UNSPSC 85682561 Removal of drainage device from skull, open approach is a Commodity code. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show significant mismatch with the nominal clinical procedure scope; instead, the procurements cover occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs for government employee plans, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these activities involves neurosurgical device removal or skull procedures. The issuing bodies include county health systems, municipal retirement offices, county boards of commissioners, county probation departments, and state transportation agencies. Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington State Department of Transportation, Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County) represent the geographic distribution of recent posts.

Representative recent opportunities illustrate the divergence from code scope: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office issued an RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for comprehensive disability medical record summary and independent medical examination coordination services to support Public Safety Personnel Retirement System benefit determinations across approximately 75 annual applications, with a five-year contract ceiling of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation's Washington State Ferries issued an RFQ (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance services including baseline and periodic medical examinations across 14 ferry locations, with cost accounting for 40 percent of evaluation scoring; and the County of Santa Clara Health System posted a multiple-award qualification vehicle (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) for temporary ancillary health professional staffing across 13 categories excluding nursing and physician services. The code shows no substantive recent activity aligned with its nominal neurosurgical scope.
