UNSPSC 85482719: Excision of median nerve, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of median nerve, percutaneous 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 01B53ZZ

UNSPSC 85482719 Excision of median nerve, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under it reflect administrative and staffing services wholly unrelated to median nerve excision—including pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, disability medical evaluation administration, and surgical center-of-excellence networks. State and local governments are not soliciting this surgical procedure code directly; the misalignment between code taxonomy and actual buying activity suggests this code either receives minimal use in state and local procurement or is being applied incorrectly to administrative health and benefits services that belong under different commodity classifications.

The issuing bodies posting under this code span county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city benefits administrators (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county human resources and benefits consortiums (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). Geographic activity appears across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no dominant regional concentration. Recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's October 16, 2026 RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting pension disability determinations; the Washington State Department of Transportation's October 9, 2026 RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminals; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's October 7, 2026 qualification vehicle for temporary ancillary clinical staffing. The fundamental mismatch between a surgical procedure code and administrative health services suggests misclassification rather than genuine procurement opportunity under this Commodity code.
