This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of stimulator lead from upper muscle, 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 0KPX4MZ

UNSPSC 85651468, Removal of stimulator lead from upper muscle, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code whose abstract procedural title does not align with the state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code—spanning independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefits administration, occupational medical surveillance, emergency care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—represent administrative health services, benefits program management, and clinical staffing rather than the neurosurgical procedure the code nominally describes. This mismatch suggests either miscoding on the part of issuing bodies or that the code is being used as a catch-all for health services contracting when a more granular health services code would be appropriate.

Activity under this code originates from a mix of issuing bodies: municipal retirement systems (City of Phoenix), city human resources and benefits offices (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county detention authorities (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county procurement offices (Collier County, Santa Clara County), and county health systems. Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Washington, and Texas. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services with proposals due October 16, 2026, the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services with proposals due October 9, 2026, the City of Long Beach RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs due October 7, 2026, and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFQ for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. Given the disconnect between code definition and actual procurement scope, the code shows little decision-relevant recent activity for firms targeting the stated procedure.
