UNSPSC 85481604: Removal of monitoring device from peripheral nerve, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of monitoring device from peripheral nerve, external 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 01PYX2Z

UNSPSC 85481604 Removal of monitoring device from peripheral nerve, external approach is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with its nominal scope. Instead, the opportunities reflect a broader market in occupational health, disability benefits administration, and healthcare service procurement that state and local issuing bodies are actively sourcing. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office sought comprehensive disability medical record summary preparation and independent medical evaluation services for pension benefit determinations; the City of Long Beach solicited a surgical carve-out and center-of-excellence network for employee health plans; the Washington State Department of Transportation contracted for occupational medical surveillance across ferry system worksites; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services in a detention setting; Collier County procured pharmacy benefit management administration; and the County of Santa Clara Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across multiple specialties. The issuing bodies span state departments, county health and human services agencies, municipal retirement offices, and public transit authorities—a mix indicating that healthcare procurement under this code serves internal workforce and beneficiary populations rather than a single service line.

Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no clear regional concentration. Representative opportunities include the Phoenix Retirement Office RFP (due October 16, 2026) for disability medical evaluations at $750,000 over five years; the City of Long Beach RFP (due October 7, 2026) for surgical benefit management with contract execution targeted for April 1, 2027; and the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP (due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026 and apparent successful bidder announcement scheduled for October 20, 2026. The Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualified vendor pool (due October 7, 2026) and Collier County's pharmacy benefit management RFP add breadth to the current pipeline. The code classification appears misaligned with the actual purchasing activity—no recent opportunity explicitly involves removal of monitoring devices from peripheral nerves. Business development professionals should verify code alignment with their service offering before pursuing opportunities posted under this taxonomy entry.
