UNSPSC 85482300: Nerves thoraco-abdominal region, open approach

This class includes one or more of 22 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the nerves of the thoraco-abdominal region, open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 01.

UNSPSC 85482300 Nerves thoraco-abdominal region, open approach is a Class code that shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.

The five most recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code involve inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county jail, pharmacy benefit management services for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services for county members, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and medical director services for a fire department EMS program. None of these solicitations involve surgical procedures on thoraco-abdominal nerves or any surgical intervention matching the code's nominal scope. The code appears to have been applied as a miscategorization across these opportunities, which span clinical administration, managed care, and preventive health services rather than operative surgical work. State and local procurement databases occasionally assign codes that do not reflect the goods or services actually being procured, particularly when commodity taxonomies are applied to service contracts where a more precise health-services code would fit better. Without evidence of actual surgical procurement under this code, pursuit is not warranted based on the available activity data.
