UNSPSC 85481770: Extraction of sacral nerve, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extraction of sacral nerve, open 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 01DR0ZZ

UNSPSC 85481770 Extraction of sacral nerve, open approach is a Commodity code nominally describing a surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show no alignment with that clinical scope. The six opportunities in the recent activity block include independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing placement—none of which involve sacral nerve extraction or any surgical extraction procedure. The mismatch between the code's clinical name and the actual work being solicited suggests either systematic misclassification in state and local procurement systems or use of this code as a placeholder for broader medical services categories that lack more precise commodity alignment.

The issuing bodies soliciting under this code span city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation authorities (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation departments (Harris County), county health systems (Collier County, Santa Clara County), and county purchasing on behalf of health consortia. Recent opportunities posted in August and September 2026 are concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance (due October 9, 2026, pre-bid conference August 31), and the County of Santa Clara Health System non-exclusive qualified-vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). Prospective vendors should treat this code with caution: the clinical name does not reflect market activity, and opportunities here appear driven by administrative misclassification rather than genuine demand for sacral nerve extraction services in the state and local space.
