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 01910ZZ

UNSPSC 85482910 Drainage of cervical nerve, open approach is a Commodity code that designates a specific surgical procedure. However, the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show minimal connection to the code's nominal scope—none of the solicitations involves cervical nerve drainage surgery or any surgical procedure matching the code name. Instead, the opportunities span occupational health screening, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical center-of-excellence networks, and emergency medical services for detained youth. The mismatch between the code's medical-procedure nomenclature and the actual procurement activity suggests either miscoding in the source records or that this code is not actively used for relevant state and local medical contracting in the current market.

The six recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies across multiple states: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Geographic activity clusters in California, Arizona, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations (response due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (response due October 9, 2026, ITB), and Santa Clara County's RFQ establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing (response due October 7, 2026). Given the consistent code-to-scope mismatch across all posted opportunities, this code does not appear to drive active procurement demand for the surgical procedure it nominally describes.
