UNSPSC 85683260 Removal of drainage device from skull, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with actual state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities block. The code nominally describes a specific neurosurgical procedure, but the six recent solicitations posted by state and local bodies between July and September 2026 are purchasing medical administration, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services — none involving percutaneous endoscopic neurosurgical procedures. The mismatch suggests either a coding error in how these opportunities were tagged or that this code tier does not reflect meaningful state and local buying patterns in practice.

The opportunities that are present span Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, issued by a city retirement board, two municipal health agencies, a county juvenile probation department, a county board of commissioners, and a regional health system. The activity ranges from independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, RFP due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years) to occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (Washington State Department of Transportation, RFP due October 9, 2026) to pharmacy benefit management covering 2,400 employees (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, RFP due April 9, 2026, approximately $8.7 million annually). This code shows little relevant recent activity and should not be pursued as a procurement vehicle for neurosurgical services or device removal.
