UNSPSC 85482151: Extirpation of matter from lumbar plexus, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from lumbar plexus, 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 01C94ZZ

UNSPSC 85482151 Extirpation of matter from lumbar plexus, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that reflects a narrow clinical procedure classification, but recent state and local solicitation activity tagged under this code bears no functional relationship to spinal surgery or endoscopic procedures. The recent opportunities posted under this code instead cover occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, and emergency medical services for youth in detention — none of which involve lumbar plexus intervention or percutaneous endoscopic techniques. This represents a significant mismatch between the code's nominal scope and what state and local procurement offices are actually buying under it. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, county health systems, county commissioners, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation departments, and municipal health plans, spanning Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas.

The recent opportunities show no coherent alignment with the code's clinical definition. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office sought independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations (RFP, Oct 16, 2026 deadline); the City of Long Beach requested surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees (RFP, Oct 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation posted occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (RFP, Oct 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Sep 25, 2026); Collier County requested pharmacy benefit management services (RFP, Apr 9, 2026 deadline); and the County of Santa Clara Health System solicited temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (RFP, Oct 7, 2026). This code shows little relevant recent activity for the spine intervention it nominally describes and should be considered inactive or misclassified for practical procurement-tracking purposes.
