UNSPSC 85482804: Destruction of radial nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of radial 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 01564ZZ

UNSPSC 85482804 Destruction of radial nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows a sharp mismatch between the code's nominal clinical scope and actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not involve nerve destruction or any percutaneous endoscopic procedures; instead, they reflect broad medical services contracting — disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational health surveillance, youth detention medical care, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. State and local issuing bodies (the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and County of Santa Clara Health System) are acquiring medical administration, care coordination, and staffing services rather than procedure-specific clinical interventions. The code classification appears to be a data-entry error or system misapplication rather than a legitimate procurement taxonomy marker for this activity.

The geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida across diverse public-sector customer types — municipal retirement systems, city employee benefits programs, state transportation agencies, county detention systems, and county health authorities. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (responses due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the City of Long Beach RFP for surgical Center of Excellence networks in the Anthem PPO plan (responses due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (responses due October 9, 2026, pre-bid conference August 31, 2026). This code should not be relied upon as a reliable procurement signal for any specific commodity or service line — organizations pursuing state and local medical services contracts should verify opportunity coding before qualification strategy or proposal planning.
