UNSPSC 85715162 Removal of drainage device from occipital-cervical joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code with minimal recent activity aligned to its stated scope. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect the specific surgical procedure named; instead, they cover occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing placement, specialty surgical center-of-excellence networks, independent medical evaluations for public-safety pension disability determinations, and emergency/inpatient healthcare services for detained youth. None of these solicitations involve removal of occipital-cervical drainage devices or percutaneous endoscopic procedures. The mismatch suggests this code is either underutilized for its nominal scope in state and local procurement or is being applied to broader healthcare-services procurements without precision.

The issuing bodies across the limited recent postings include county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city employee benefits programs (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county benefit administration (Collier County). Geographic coverage spans California, Texas, Florida, Arizona, and Washington, with no concentration in any single region. Activity is sparse and diverse, with no repeat buyers pursuing the code's stated service line and no opportunities showing procurement volume or regular recurrence patterns under this Commodity code.
