UNSPSC 85482519: Excision of thoracic sympathetic nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of thoracic 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 01BL4ZZ

UNSPSC 85482519 Excision of thoracic sympathetic nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and actual state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure (thoracic sympathetic nerve excision via percutaneous endoscopic technique), yet the recent solicitations tagged under it span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out management, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these represent the targeted surgical procedure named in the code; the mismatch suggests either miscoding in submission or a systematic labeling misalignment in the source database.

The posted opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies — city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health plans (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County, Texas), county human resources divisions (Collier County, Florida), and county health systems (Santa Clara County, California) — spanning Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. The geographic footprint is scattered, and no single jurisdiction or service type repeats across multiple opportunities. No recent activity directly matches the code's procedural description, and the code appears unsuitable as written for business development targeting in state and local procurement.
