UNSPSC 85472237: Transfer glossopharyngeal nerve to trigeminal nerve, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to transfer glossopharyngeal nerve to trigeminal 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 00XP0ZK

UNSPSC 85472237 Transfer glossopharyngeal nerve to trigeminal nerve, open approach is a Commodity code nominally describing a specific surgical nerve-transfer procedure. State and local opportunities posted under this code do not align with the code's surgical specification. Recent solicitations tagged to this code instead request independent medical evaluation services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgical center networks for government employee health plans, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve nerve-transfer surgery. The issuing bodies are city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county health systems, counties, and juvenile justice agencies. The code shows substantial category misalignment, suggesting either systematic miscoding by posting offices or a procurement taxonomy gap between state and local systems and the surgical-procedure specificity embedded in this Commodity tier.

Recent opportunities appear across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services including disability medical record summary preparation and scheduling of independent medical and psychiatric examinations, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years. The Washington State Department of Transportation issued an RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington State ferry locations, requiring licensed physicians board-certified in occupational medicine to conduct baseline, periodic, and exit examinations for shipyard and vessel crew personnel. The County of Santa Clara Health System solicited a multiple-award qualified vendor pool (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, and surgical/operating room services. Collier County (RFP 25-8414, proposals were required by April 9, 2026) procured pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 family members, with historical annual spending around $8.7 million and evaluation scoring weighted toward business plan quality, firm experience, and cost.
