UNSPSC 85562718 Extirpation of matter from left frontal sinus, open approach is a Commodity code that carries a medical-procedure classification but shows no alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure on the frontal sinus—does not match the work actually being solicited under this tag in the recent opportunities block.

The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These represent operational healthcare contracting by counties, cities, state transportation departments, and regional health systems—work fundamentally disconnected from a narrow surgical procedure code. The issuing bodies include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. No recent solicitation actually describes procurement of surgical extirpation procedures or related medical devices or supplies. The code shows little relevant recent activity and appears to have been applied incorrectly to health services contracting opportunities that belong in healthcare administration or staffing taxonomy rather than surgical procedure codes.
