UNSPSC 85482317: Repair thoracic nerve, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair 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 01Q80ZZ

UNSPSC 85482317 Repair thoracic nerve, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure on the nervous system, yet the recent solicitations posted under this code cover occupational medical surveillance, pension disability medical evaluations, surgical benefits carve-outs for municipal employees, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which involve thoracic nerve repair or any surgical intervention. This mismatch suggests either a data-classification error in the source or that the code is being used as a catch-all medical-services taxonomy entry by state and local procurement offices rather than as a precise procedure code. State and local governments do not appear to be sourcing thoracic nerve repair procedures directly; the recent activity under this code reflects administrative and logistics functions within public-sector healthcare delivery and benefits administration.

The issuing bodies using this code span large municipal health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county benefits offices (Collier County, City of Phoenix Retirement Office), county detention services (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and independent pension boards. Geographic distribution includes California, Arizona, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 (RFP RTMRFP26001, $750,000 over five years for disability benefit medical record review and scheduling); the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026 (RFP RFP20260825, covering 14 ferry system locations statewide with a two-year term and extension options); and Santa Clara County Health System's non-exclusive qualified-vendor pool solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 clinical categories, due October 7, 2026 (RFSQHHSFY270052). These opportunities reflect administrative procurement and staffing logistics rather than clinical procedures.
