UNSPSC 85683391: Destruction of right parietal bone, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of right parietal bone, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0N534ZZ

UNSPSC 85683391 Destruction of right parietal bone, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show no alignment with the medical procedure named in the code itself. The opportunities instead reflect procurement for occupational health surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care carve-outs, emergency medical services for youth in custody, and temporary ancillary clinical staffing—none of which involve the specific neurosurgical procedure indicated by the code number. This mismatch suggests either a data classification error or that the code has been applied to opportunities falling outside its intended scope.

The issuing bodies span state health departments, county health systems and human resources offices, and municipal retirement boards across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026), and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (RFP 25-8414, with historical annual spend of approximately $8.7 million). Given the complete disconnect between the code's stated procedure and actual procurement activity, this code warrants careful review before pursuing work—the code classification does not reflect current buying patterns.
