UNSPSC 85762606 Removal of other device from cranial cavity, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows a mismatch between its nominal medical procedure classification and the actual work state and local governments are purchasing under this tag. Recent state and local solicitations posted against this code do not request cranial surgical procedures; instead, they solicit occupational health surveillance, pension disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out networks, and youth detention medical services. The code appears to have been applied to general healthcare procurement activities rather than to the specific neurological procedure its name describes. State and local issuing bodies—including county health systems, county commissioners, municipal retirement offices, state transportation departments, county probation departments, and municipal human resources divisions—are using this code to tag a wide range of health services contracting. The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, reflecting a national pattern of healthcare service procurement across diverse jurisdictional types.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office requesting independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 five-year contract); the Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of Washington State Ferries, soliciting occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, pre-bid conference August 31, 2026); the City of Long Beach requesting surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for its Anthem PPO plan (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026, approximately 3,800 enrolled employees and retirees); and Collier County Board of County Commissioners issuing an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (RFP 25-8414, April 9, 2026 deadline, approximately $8.7 million annual historical spend). The County of Santa Clara Health System is also establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (RFP RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle with no guaranteed work). The code shows substantial recent activity but little relevance to the cranial surgical procedure its UNSPSC name indicates.
