UNSPSC 85482309: Excision of thoracic nerve, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of thoracic nerve, open 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 01B80ZZ

UNSPSC 85482309 Excision of thoracic nerve, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope does not align with the state and local procurement activity recently tagged under it. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity; the six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical carve-out benefit administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which represent surgical excision of thoracic nerves or operative procedures.

The mismatch between the code's clinical procedure name and the actual procurement activity suggests either a data-tagging error in the source system or that state and local procurement offices are using this code to encompass a broader set of occupational health, benefits administration, and emergency medical services that do not correspond to its anatomical procedure definition. Without recent opportunities that actually solicit thoracic nerve surgery services, excision procedures, or operative clinical interventions, the code does not present a viable or actionable business development opportunity in the state and local procurement market as currently tagged.
