UNSPSC 85482722: Extirpation of matter from ulnar nerve, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from ulnar 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 01C43ZZ

UNSPSC 85482722 Extirpation of matter from ulnar nerve, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with actual state and local procurement activity. The code's clinical taxonomy describes a specific surgical procedure on the ulnar nerve; however, recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code are purchasing occupational health surveillance services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, and surgical procedure carve-out benefits for employee health plans. None of the recent opportunities involve ulnar nerve surgery or the percutaneous extraction procedures the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the source data or a taxonomic gap where state and local procurement offices are applying this code to medical administration and occupational health services that fall outside its intended scope.

The geographic spread of tagged opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (posted September 16, 2026, due October 16, 2026) supporting disability pension determinations, and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington ferry system locations (posted August 25, 2026, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference). Given the absence of relevant recent activity matching the code's stated scope, this code presents no actionable procurement signal for vendors offering ulnar nerve procedures or related surgical services.
