UNSPSC 85481901 Destruction of lumbar plexus, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose title does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to it. The five most recent opportunities posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve destruction of lumbar plexus or any percutaneous nerve ablation procedure. The mismatch suggests either a systematic miscoding issue within the procurement source or a tagging error; the code shows little relevant recent activity for the procedure its name describes.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities represent a geographic and administrative mix spanning Georgia, Florida, and California — specifically Muscogee County Prison (Columbus Consolidated Government Finance Department), Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Monroe County Board of County Commissioners, San Mateo County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services, and Santa Monica Fire Department. The contract values and scopes are substantial: inmate medical services estimated at approximately $95,500 monthly (Muscogee County), pharmacy benefit management at $8.7 million annually (Collier County), virtual primary care with no disclosed budget (Monroe County), peer support services at $580,000 over three years (San Mateo County), and fire department medical direction with an unspecified not-to-exceed amount (Santa Monica). All opportunities include standard compliance requirements such as E-Verify enrollment, liability insurance, and often professional licensing or NCCHC accreditation. Given the complete divergence between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited, pursuit under this code warrants confirmation that the miscoding is intentional before resource investment.
