UNSPSC 85480000: Surgical interventions or procedures of peripheral nervous system

This family of surgical interventions or procedures is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS as code 01 Peripheral Nervous System

UNSPSC 85480000 Surgical interventions or procedures of peripheral nervous system is a Family code that encompasses medical evaluation, occupational health surveillance, and specialty surgical benefit administration services purchased by state and local governments, though recent solicitations under this code diverge significantly from the narrow surgical-procedure framing in the code name. The actual work being solicited includes independent medical evaluations for public safety personnel disability determinations, occupational medical surveillance across multiple worksites, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit programs offered through Centers of Excellence networks, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing for ancillary clinical categories including surgical and operating room personnel. Issuing bodies include city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation authorities, county health systems, and municipal government health benefits programs, reflecting a diverse mix of public-sector healthcare procurement across administrative, occupational health, benefits administration, and detention custody contexts.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in the Southwest and West, with recent solicitations from Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), plus Florida (Collier County).
