UNSPSC 85473769: Transfer facial nerve to facial nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to transfer facial nerve to facial 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 00XM4ZM

UNSPSC 85473769 Transfer facial nerve to facial nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope—a highly specific surgical procedure—and the actual state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not solicit facial nerve transfer surgeries or related procedural services; instead, they reflect health plan administration, occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. State and local governments do not appear to be procuring this specific surgical procedure through public contracting mechanisms captured in recent UNSPSC-tagged solicitations.

The geographic spread of the tagged opportunities spans Washington (occupational medical surveillance for Washington State Ferries), Arizona (Phoenix Retirement Office disability evaluations), California (Long Beach surgical benefits carve-out and Santa Clara County health professional staffing), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management), and Texas (Harris County juvenile detention medical services). The issuing bodies include state transportation agencies, city retirement offices, municipal health benefits programs, county human resources and health systems, and county juvenile justice departments. Given the fundamental mismatch between the code's procedural nomenclature and the health plan administration, occupational health, and staffing work actually being solicited, this code does not present a meaningful market signal for vendors pursuing facial nerve transfer procedures or related surgical services in state and local procurement.
