UNSPSC 85562721: Extirpation of matter from right maxillary sinus, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right maxillary sinus, open 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 09CQ0ZZ

UNSPSC 85562721 Extirpation of matter from right maxillary sinus, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated medical procedure scope. The six recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical carve-out networks, and emergency services for detained youth—none of which concern maxillary sinus procedures or surgical extraction. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the source jurisdiction's procurement taxonomy, or that the code has been repurposed in practice to capture a broader family of health services contracting rather than a specific surgical intervention. State and local buyers tagging work under this code appear to be health systems, counties, and municipal retirement boards.

The geographic spread of the six opportunities covers Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington state (Department of Transportation, Washington State Ferries), and Texas (Harris County). The most substantive opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations (due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference scheduled August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen clinical categories excluding nursing and physicians (due October 7, 2026). Collier County issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services with historical annual spend of $8.7 million; the City of Long Beach solicited surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for approximately 3,800 enrolled employees; and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth. Absent alignment between the code's procedural title and the work actually being bought, opportunities under this code warrant close scrutiny before pursuit.
