UNSPSC 85482508: Release abdominal sympathetic nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release abdominal sympathetic 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 01NM4ZZ

UNSPSC 85482508 Release abdominal sympathetic nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local procurement activity reflected in recent opportunities. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code solicit occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefit programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these procurements concern the abdominal sympathetic nerve procedure the code name identifies. The mismatch indicates either a classification error in the opportunities database or that the code is being applied to a broad family of health services administration and occupational health work rather than a discrete surgical intervention.

The issuing bodies include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and city retirement offices (City of Phoenix). Geographic spread includes Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include WSDOT's occupational medical surveillance RFP for Washington State Ferries (due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP for pension disability determinations (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), and the City of Long Beach's surgical carve-out benefit RFP for employees enrolled in an Anthem PPO plan (due October 7, 2026). Given the disconnect between the code's stated scope and the actual work being solicited, pursue only if your firm operates in occupational health services, disability medical evaluations, or health benefits administration — not surgical procedures.
