UNSPSC 85682952: Repair skull, 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 0NQ03ZZ

UNSPSC 85682952 Repair skull, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction—none of which represent repair-skull procedures or percutaneous surgical approaches. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or that this code does not accurately reflect current state and local buying patterns for the procedure it nominally describes.

No state and local opportunities specifically soliciting repair-skull or percutaneous cranial procedures appear in the recent posting record. The geographic spread of the few opportunities posted under this code includes Georgia (Muscogee County), Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), California (San Mateo County and Santa Monica), but these solicitations address healthcare administration, virtual care platforms, and EMS direction rather than surgical services. The absence of surgical-procedure-specific procurement activity under this code suggests it may be inactive for state and local contracting or that agencies use alternative coding when purchasing neurosurgical or orthopedic services.
