UNSPSC 85481900: Nerves lumbrosacral region, percutaneous approach-part A

This class includes one or more of 22 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the nerves of the lumbrosacral region, percutaneous approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 01.

UNSPSC 85481900 Nerves lumbrosacral region, percutaneous approach-part A is a Class code that does not map to the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local contracting activity. The code nominally describes a medical procedure code, but the recent opportunities posted under this classification cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services for pension and disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth—none of which involve lumbrosacral nerve procedures. The source shows a clear mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy label and the scope of work state and local governments are actually buying.

The recent opportunities originate from state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and county health systems across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Because the code classification does not align with the actual procurement activity, the code shows little relevant recent activity for firms pursuing lumbrosacral nerve procedure services or related products in state and local markets.
