UNSPSC 85811701: Introduction of nonautologous somatic stem cells into cranial cavity and brain, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a administrative intervention or procedure to introduction of nonautologous somatic stem cells into cranial cavity and brain, open approach. This administrative 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 3E0Q0E1

UNSPSC 85811701 Introduction of nonautologous somatic stem cells into cranial cavity and brain, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specialized neurosurgical procedure, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code do not align with the medical procedure the code names—instead they cover general healthcare services, behavioral health programs, occupational health assessments, and recovery initiatives funded through opioid settlement and Medicaid resources. The code shows little relevant recent activity for the specific neurosurgical procedure described in its name.

State and local issuing bodies across the recent opportunities include county health departments and authorities (Inland Empire Health Plan in California, Nevada Health Authority, DeKalb County Georgia, Santa Clara County, Solano County), cities (Atlanta, Phoenix, Ocala), school districts (Parkway School District), and specialized healthcare systems (San Mateo Medical Center, Boulder County Sheriff's Office). Activity spans California, Georgia, Nevada, Florida, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, Illinois, Oregon, Kansas, Missouri, Texas, Virginia, and the District of Columbia, with no geographic concentration. Representative recent solicitations include the Nevada Health Authority's RFP 41NHA-S4038 for Program of All Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) operations due December 10, 2026, which structures pricing at fixed monthly capitation rates ranging from $4,532.24 to $8,804.32 per participant depending on service area and eligibility; San Mateo County's RFP for Cancer Registry Services due November 6, 2026, seeking contract services at San Mateo Medical Center with a three-year term and local business preferences of 5–10 percentage points; and Sedgwick County and the City of Wichita's coordinated RFPs for opioid use disorder treatment, recovery, prevention, and education services across four funding tracks due September 15, 2026, with individual awards capped at $50,000 to $450,000 and split funding between county and city. The code assignment appears to be a classification error; the concrete work being solicited under this code centers on administrative health services, specialty healthcare delivery, behavioral health treatment, and public health program management rather than neurosurgical stem cell procedures.
