UNSPSC 85482814: Drainage of median nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of median 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 01954ZZ

UNSPSC 85482814 Drainage of median nerve, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal medical-procedure scope and recent state and local solicitation activity. The code's technical surgical descriptor does not match the opportunities posted under this classification, which center instead on occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans. State and local procurement offices have tagged these broader health services and administrative medical functions to this code, but the work being solicited—medical record review, examination scheduling, occupational medicine surveillance, and health plan administration—bears no operational relationship to drainage of the median nerve via percutaneous endoscopic approach.

The recent-opportunities block includes six solicitations spanning late July through mid-September 2026 across four jurisdictions: the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluation services), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit carve-out program), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (specialty medical services for detained youth), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing). Geographic activity clusters in California, Arizona, Washington, and Texas. The code shows no clear repeat buyers or concentrated issuing-body pattern relevant to the code's stated clinical scope. This code's recent activity suggests misclassification rather than genuine procurement opportunity under the median-nerve drainage definition.
