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 0NC80ZZ

UNSPSC 85682624 Extirpation of matter from left occipital bone, open approach is a Commodity code whose recent state and local posting history shows minimal alignment with its nominal medical-procedure scope. The six opportunities posted since mid-July 2026 span independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical carve-out benefit programs, occupational medical surveillance for transportation workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve neurosurgical bone removal or procedures targeting the occipital bone. The code appears to have been misapplied to these opportunities, suggesting either a data-entry error in the source system or a fundamental mismatch between the taxonomy assignment and the work actually being procured. State and local buyers posting under this code are a diverse mix including city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal health authorities (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara Health System), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation and human services divisions (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County), and independent school or transit networks.

Recent activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 maximum over five years and an October 16, 2026 response deadline; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations with an October 9, 2026 deadline and a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; the City of Long Beach posted an RFP for surgical benefit management with an October 7, 2026 deadline; and the County of Santa Clara Health System posted an RFQ for temporary health professional staffing with the same October 7, 2026 deadline. Given the absence of neurosurgical procurement in the recent-opportunities block and the wide scatter of unrelated medical and administrative services, this code shows little relevant recent activity for firms pursuing state and local contracts in its nominal scope.
