This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of stimulator lead from lower muscle, 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 0KPY3MZ

UNSPSC 85651316 Removal of stimulator lead from lower muscle, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope describes a surgical procedure for device removal, yet the six most-recent opportunities posted under this code solicit medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical procedure networks, health professional staffing, and specialty medical care for detained youth—none of which involve stimulator lead removal or percutaneous surgical intervention of any kind. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a data alignment problem that renders this code unreliable for business development targeting state and local procurement activity.

The recent opportunities under this code span multiple jurisdictions and service types: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations), the City of Long Beach (surgical center-of-excellence carve-out for a PPO plan), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and 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 across ancillary clinical categories). Activity is distributed across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no clear geographic concentration. Given the absence of any recent solicitation actually matching the code's stated procedure, practitioners should treat this code as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and verify the correct UNSPSC mapping before pursuing opportunities in this category.
