UNSPSC 85683036: Excision of right occipital bone, 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 0NB73ZZ

UNSPSC 85683036 Excision of right occipital bone, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code for a specific surgical procedure; however, the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code bear no relation to surgical services and instead reflect healthcare administration, pharmacy benefit management, and medical director services. The code shows a clear mismatch between its nominal scope and actual procurement activity, indicating that the tagging reflects data quality issues rather than genuine demand for the surgical procedure named in the code. State and local governments are not procuring this surgical procedure through the opportunities recorded under this code.

Recent opportunities include county jails and prisons (Muscogee County Prison through Columbus Consolidated Government), counties with employee health plans (Collier County and Monroe County in Florida), a county behavioral health agency (San Mateo County), and a municipal fire department (Santa Monica). These issuing bodies are seeking comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management administration for employee health plans, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services. The geographic spread spans Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Muscogee County), California (San Mateo County and Santa Monica), and reflects fragmented procurement across different types of local health and safety agencies rather than concentrated demand in a single sector. Representative opportunities include the Muscogee County Prison's RFP for inmate medical and pharmacy services (response due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (response due April 9, 2026, with historical spending around $8.7 million annually), and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services (response due April 16, 2026, with an effective date of October 1, 2026). The code as currently tagged does not represent a viable pursuit avenue for vendors offering the surgical procedure it nominally describes.
