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 01ND0ZZ

UNSPSC 85481315 Release femoral nerve, open approach is a Commodity code that does not match the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, yet the five most-recent opportunities posted under this code span inmate prison medical and pharmacy services, county employee pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures or femoral nerve release. The mismatch suggests a coding or data-entry error in the state and local procurement systems that assigned these opportunities to this code, rather than genuine buying activity aligned with the code's surgical scope.

No substantive procurement activity relevant to the code's nominal scope has been recorded in the recent-opportunities block. The opportunities present — Columbus Consolidated Government (Muscogee County Prison inmate medical services, RFP due May 15, 2026), Collier County, Florida (pharmacy benefit management covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 members, RFP due April 9, 2026), Monroe County, Florida (virtual primary and urgent care services, RFP due April 16, 2026), San Mateo County, California (peer support for peer workers, RFP due July 2, 2025), and Santa Monica Fire Department (EMS medical director, RFP due October 16, 2025) — represent administrative healthcare contracting, not surgical procurement. A firm evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for its stated commodity scope and flag the classification inconsistency with the issuing procurement systems before investing in pursuit strategy.
