UNSPSC 85482640: Reposition radial nerve, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition radial 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 01S60ZZ

UNSPSC 85482640 Reposition radial nerve, open approach is a Commodity code nominally describing a surgical procedure, but recent state and local contract opportunities show minimal alignment with this orthopedic code. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations—medical record review and examination scheduling with no surgical intervention. The City of Long Beach solicited a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program managing Centers of Excellence networks for knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures through a managed care lens. The Washington State Department of Transportation (ferries division) sought occupational medical surveillance services including baseline and periodic examinations for shipyard and vessel workers—preventive occupational health, not surgical treatment. Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty hospital-based services for detained youth. Collier County posted an RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management services. The County of Santa Clara Health System solicited temporary staffing in ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, imaging, and therapy—no surgical procedures. The code's abstract name does not match the work actually being bought; state and local governments are not sourcing radial nerve repositioning services through these procurement channels.

Because no recent opportunities reflect the substance of UNSPSC 85482640 as a surgical procedure code, the code shows little relevant recent activity for business development purposes. The few opportunities that carry medical or surgical scope designations—Phoenix's disability evaluations, Long Beach's Centers of Excellence network, and WSDOT's occupational surveillance—address administration, care coordination, and preventive health management rather than surgical intervention. If your firm pursues surgery-related opportunities in state and local procurement, monitor higher-tier medical services families and health benefit administration codes instead.
