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 019L4ZZ

UNSPSC 85482517 Drainage of thoracic sympathetic nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose nominal clinical taxonomy does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in detention. None of these solicitations involve the specific surgical procedure named in the code title. The mismatch suggests either miscoding on the issuing bodies' part or a data-taxonomy alignment issue; the code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement for the clinical service the UNSPSC name describes.

Issuing bodies posting under this code include county human resources and retirement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), state transportation and corrections departments (Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and county health systems (County of Santa Clara Health System). Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with representative recent solicitations including the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP for ferry system workers (due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out services (due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's nonexclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). Business development professionals should verify coding accuracy with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities under this code, as the work being solicited does not consistently match the procedure named.
