UNSPSC 85482184: Removal of drainage device from peripheral nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of drainage device from peripheral nerve, 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 01PY40Z

UNSPSC 85482184 Removal of drainage device from peripheral nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The six recent state and local opportunities posted under this code involve occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical care networks, and emergency services for detained youth—none of which involve the percutaneous endoscopic removal of peripheral nerve drainage devices that the code purports to describe. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or misalignment between the taxonomy and current procurement usage in the state and local market.

The opportunities themselves span health system procurement across multiple issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Recent solicitations include an RFP from the City of Phoenix for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026; an RFP from the City of Long Beach for surgical benefit carve-out management due October 7, 2026; an RFP from WSDOT for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026; and an RFP from Collier County for pharmacy benefit management services due April 9, 2026 (posted August 20). Geographic activity is concentrated in California, Arizona, Florida, Texas, and Washington, though the code's misalignment with actual scope means the category lacks decision-relevance for vendors targeting surgical device removal or peripheral nerve procedures.
