UNSPSC 85683001: Inspection of skull, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to inspection of 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 0NJ03ZZ

UNSPSC 85683001 Inspection of skull, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and recent state and local contract activity. The code's technical medical definition does not match the actual work being solicited under this classification in current opportunities.

The recent opportunities posted under this code reflect a broad range of health services procurement—occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, specialty surgical procedure networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involves skull inspection or percutaneous procedures. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and special-purpose districts (health systems). This code shows little relevant recent activity for firms targeting procurement aligned with its stated commodity definition.

Geographic activity appears scattered across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington in the recent postings. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 with a $750,000 maximum contract value over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026 with pre-bid conference August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFS (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories due October 7, 2026. The mismatch between the code's technical definition and the diversity of health-services procurement tagged to it suggests either misclassification by posting jurisdictions or inconsistent UNSPSC application across state and local buyers.
