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 09NX0ZZ

UNSPSC 85562643 Release left sphenoid sinus, open approach is a Commodity code describing a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code do not reflect surgical services. Instead, the opportunities solicited include comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employee health plans, virtual primary and urgent care services for county members, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director services. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual procurements suggests this code has been applied inconsistently or incorrectly in state and local procurement systems. None of the recent opportunities represent the surgical intervention the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies span multiple jurisdictions and service types: the Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department (Muscogee County Prison inmate medical and pharmacy services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners Procurement Services Division (pharmacy benefit management for county employees), Monroe County Board of County Commissioners (virtual primary and urgent care for county members), San Mateo County Health Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (peer support pilot for behavioral health workers), and the Santa Monica Fire Department (EMS medical director). Geographic activity includes Georgia, Florida, California, and scattered municipal procurement. Representative recent opportunities include the Muscogee County Prison RFP No. 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services (due May 15, 2026), Collier County RFP 25-8414 for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services (due April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's virtual primary and urgent care RFP (due April 16, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated surgical procedure definition.
