UNSPSC 85472279: Transfer hypoglossal nerve to accessory nerve, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to transfer hypoglossal nerve to accessory 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 00XS0ZR

UNSPSC 85472279 Transfer hypoglossal nerve to accessory nerve, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code do not reflect surgical services or nerve transfer procedures. Instead, the opportunities span healthcare administration and management services including inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which align with the code's stated scope of a surgical nerve transfer performed via open approach. The code shows a systematic mismatch between its nominal taxonomy definition and the work state and local governments are actually procuring under it.

The few recent opportunities posted under this code originate from diverse issuing bodies: the Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department Purchasing Division (Georgia), Collier County Board of County Commissioners Procurement Services Division (Florida), Monroe County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), San Mateo County Health, Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (California), and the Santa Monica Fire Department (California). Activity spans the Southeast and West Coast with no clear geographic concentration. Representative solicitations include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026, via RFP), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees (posted April 9, 2026, via RFP with 180-day proposal validity), Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members (due April 16, 2026, via RFP), San Mateo County's RFP 2025-007 for peer support services targeting $580,000 (due July 2, 2025), and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP 628 for a fire department medical director (due October 16, 2025). The code's classification appears to reflect a cataloging error or legacy artifact rather than a current procurement signal; business development professionals should verify code assignment before committing resources to pursue these opportunities.
