UNSPSC 85472235: Transfer glossopharyngeal nerve to oculomotor nerve, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to transfer glossopharyngeal nerve to oculomotor nerve, open 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 00XP0ZH

UNSPSC 85472235 Transfer glossopharyngeal nerve to oculomotor nerve, open approach (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical nerve transfer procedure; however, the most recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code instead solicit occupational medical surveillance services, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefit management, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. None of these solicitations involve the specific surgical procedure named in the code. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source data or that jurisdictions are using this code as a placeholder for general medical services procurement rather than the discrete surgical intervention it describes.

The recent opportunities show activity from state health departments (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), county government (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), and cities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), with geographic spread across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (response due October 16, 2026), WSDOT's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington ferries locations (response due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle for temporary health professional staffing in 13 ancillary clinical categories (response due October 7, 2026). The code currently shows little decision relevance for firms targeting state and local government procurement.
