UNSPSC 85472540: Transfer glossopharyngeal nerve to acoustic nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to transfer glossopharyngeal nerve to acoustic 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 00XP4ZN

UNSPSC 85472540 Transfer glossopharyngeal nerve to acoustic nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it reflect no relevant activity aligned with that clinical definition. The six recent solicitations posted between July and September 2026 span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve nerve transfer surgery or the procedural scope the code nominally describes. This mismatch suggests either a systematic tagging error in the procurement source or that this code is not actively used by state and local issuing bodies for its intended clinical purpose.

The issuing bodies in the recent records include county health systems (Santa Clara, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of Commissioners), municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal employee benefits programs (City of Long Beach), and a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. If the code were properly aligned with its nominal scope — surgical intervention for cranial nerve pathology — procurement volume would likely be negligible in state and local markets, as such specialized neurosurgical procedures are not typically commodities subject to general government contracting. No representative opportunities exist under the code's intended scope.
