UNSPSC 85682800: Flat bones skull, percutaneous approach-part A

This class includes one or more of 17 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the flat bones of the skull with percutaneous approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0N.

UNSPSC 85682800 Flat bones skull, percutaneous approach-part A is a Class code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five most recent opportunities posted under this code are unrelated to the code's nominal medical/surgical scope: they solicit inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county correctional facility, pharmacy benefit management services for a county workforce, virtual primary and urgent care services for a county health plan, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and medical director services for a fire department EMS program. None of these solicitations involve the procurement of flat bone skull products or services via percutaneous approach as the code title suggests, indicating a likely tagging or classification mismatch between the opportunities and the assigned UNSPSC code.

The geographic spread of these misaligned opportunities spans Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government), Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), California (San Mateo County), and California again (Santa Monica Fire Department), with issuing bodies including county governments, health departments, and municipal fire departments. Without opportunities that genuinely align with the code's stated scope, there is no actionable market signal for vendors pursuing work under UNSPSC 85682800.
