UNSPSC 85481605: Removal of neurostimulator lead from peripheral nerve, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of neurostimulator lead 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 01PYXMZ

UNSPSC 85481605, Removal of neurostimulator lead from peripheral nerve, external approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal surgical scope. The source contains no recent state and local opportunities soliciting neurostimulator lead removal or related implantable device services. Instead, the opportunities tagged under this code reflect a significant mismatch: they span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve neurostimulator procedures.

The geographic spread of tagged opportunities spans Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Florida (Collier County), Texas (Harris County), and Washington (State Department of Transportation), but these represent general healthcare procurement rather than peripheral nerve device services. Given the absence of relevant recent opportunities under this code, it does not present a clear market signal for business development focus at this time. Practitioners should verify coding accuracy when evaluating this UNSPSC category or consider whether actual state and local demand for neurostimulator procedures exists outside the tagged solicitation set.
