UNSPSC 85472308: Division of hypoglossal nerve, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to division of hypoglossal nerve, percutaneous 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 008S3ZZ

UNSPSC 85472308 Division of hypoglossal nerve, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows no alignment with the code's clinical descriptor. The recent opportunities posted under this code—including independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefit carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention medical services—span healthcare administration, benefits management, and occupational health rather than any single procedural intervention. The issuing bodies are mixed municipalities, county governments, and county health systems, with no repeat buyers evident in the recent sample. This code appears to reflect a mismatch between its UNSPSC classification and the work actually being solicited under it.

Recent activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) supporting disability determinations for public safety personnel, with a five-year contract ceiling of $750,000. The City of Long Beach issued an RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) covering specialized Centers of Excellence networks for employees and retirees. The Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance services covering 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference August 31, 2026). Collier County solicited pharmacy benefit management services (RFP 25-8414) with historical spending around $8.7 million annually. Given the absence of any recent opportunities actually purchasing the hypoglossal nerve division procedure named in the code, this code presents no current pursuit opportunity for vendors in that clinical domain.
