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 095U0ZZ

UNSPSC 85562770 Destruction of right ethmoid sinus, open approach is a Commodity code that appears to describe a specific surgical procedure rather than a product or service category state and local governments typically procure. Recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code show no alignment with the surgical procedure the code nominally names. The opportunities solicited are medical administration and healthcare delivery contracts—inmate healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support programs, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve surgical destruction of the ethmoid sinus or any otolaryngologic procedure. This mismatch suggests either a systematic coding error in the source data or a misapplication of the UNSPSC taxonomy to these opportunities.

The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to its stated scope. The five opportunities posted between February and April 2026 span Florida, Georgia, and California jurisdictions, including county governments, municipal fire departments, and county health departments, but their actual work—managing inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (Columbus Consolidated Government RFP 26-0008, due May 15, 2026); administering pharmacy benefits for Collier County employees and retirees (Collier County Board of County Commissioners RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026); operating virtual primary and urgent care platforms for Monroe County members (Monroe County RFP, due April 16, 2026); piloting peer support services for behavioral health workers in San Mateo County (San Mateo County Health BHRS RFP 2025-007, due July 2, 2025); and providing emergency medical services oversight for Santa Monica Fire Department (SMFD RFP 455, due October 16, 2025)—bears no connection to surgical procedures. Business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing opportunities under this code.
