UNSPSC 85482201: Repair lumbar plexus, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair 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 01Q94ZZ

UNSPSC 85482201 Repair lumbar plexus, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The source records five recent opportunities posted under or near this code, but none involve surgical repair of the lumbar plexus or percutaneous endoscopic procedures. Instead, the opportunities span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — categories unrelated to the orthopedic surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The code appears to be either miscoded in the state and local systems from which these opportunities were drawn, or the opportunities were tagged incorrectly at procurement entry.

No relevant recent activity supports measurable demand for lumbar plexus repair services under this code in state and local procurement. Bidders should verify whether state and local health systems, correctional agencies, or other public bodies are actually purchasing or contracting for this service and whether they use this UNSPSC code to tag such procurements. Until the mismatch between the code's surgical scope and the health services, pharmacy management, and behavioral health opportunities appearing in the recent record resolves, pursuing opportunities tagged to 85482201 is not a reliable strategy.
