This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to transfer acoustic nerve to hypoglossal nerve, percutaneous endoscopic 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 00XN4ZS

UNSPSC 85472532, Transfer acoustic nerve to hypoglossal nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specialized surgical procedure — transferring the acoustic nerve to the hypoglossal nerve via percutaneous endoscopic technique — yet the recent opportunities tagged to this code do not involve that procedure or related surgical services. Instead, the tagged opportunities span pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, specialty surgical center-of-excellence networks, and youth detention medical services. None of these solicitations align with the acoustic-hypoglossal nerve transfer procedure that the code's name describes, indicating either a systematic miscoding issue or the code's absence from active state and local procurement practice. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being procured under it makes this code a poor targeting opportunity.

State and local jurisdictions soliciting under this code include county health systems, county commissioners' offices, state transportation departments, city retirement boards, and county juvenile justice agencies across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgery benefit and center-of-excellence carve-out programs (due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code's miscoding against actual procurement needs suggests pursuing vendors should verify accurate UNSPSC alignment before investing in pursuit strategy under this particular commodity designation.
