UNSPSC 85482121: Drainage of lumbar plexus with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of lumbar plexus with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic 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 019940Z

UNSPSC 85482121 Drainage of lumbar plexus with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure involving lumbar plexus drainage, yet the six most-recent opportunities posted under this classification span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out benefits, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve the targeted procedure or percutaneous endoscopic techniques. This classification mismatch suggests either data entry error in the source records or inconsistent tagging practices by issuing bodies, rendering the code unreliable for procurement targeting.

The recent opportunities show activity across multiple jurisdictions and issuing-body types: the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance), City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluations), City of Long Beach (surgical benefit carve-out), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency medical services RFI), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing). Geographic spread includes Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative opportunities include the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026 (all-inclusive pricing, 40 percent cost-based evaluation), the City of Phoenix disability medical evaluation RFP due October 16, 2026 with $750,000 maximum compensation over five years, and the Collier County pharmacy benefit management RFP with approximately $8.7 million in historical annual spending. Given the absence of genuine lumbar plexus drainage solicitations and the procedurally misaligned opportunities currently tagged to this code, pursuit under this UNSPSC classification is not recommended without verification that the code assignment reflects actual buyer intent.
