UNSPSC 85482213: Reposition lumbar nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition lumbar 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 01SB4ZZ

UNSPSC 85482213 Reposition lumbar nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity for state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure — repositioning the lumbar nerve using percutaneous endoscopic technique — but recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code do not reflect surgical services or spinal procedures. Instead, the five recent solicitations span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department emergency medical direction. These opportunities represent healthcare administration, managed care, and employee health services rather than the orthopedic or neurosurgical work the code itself names. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing procurement offices or a broad tagging of healthcare-related activity without precision to commodity-level specificity.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities are diverse: Columbus Consolidated Government (county detention healthcare), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (employee pharmacy benefits), Monroe County Board of County Commissioners (employee virtual care), San Mateo County Health Behavioral Services (peer worker support), and Santa Monica Fire Department (medical direction). Geographic spread includes Georgia, Florida (two counties), California, and California again, with no geographic concentration. Representative solicitations include the Columbus Consolidated Government RFP No. 26-0008 for Muscogee County Prison inmate medical and pharmacy services (RFP, due May 15, 2026, current monthly cost $95,537.71 under incumbent CorrectHealth Companies LLC), and Collier County RFP 25-8414 for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 members (RFP, due April 9, 2026, with historical pharmacy spending approximately $8.7 million annually). Because the code itself does not align with the opportunities posted under it, treat this signal as a coding anomaly rather than a market indicator for spinal procedures in the state and local sector.
