UNSPSC 85562855: Extirpation of matter from left sphenoid sinus, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from left sphenoid sinus, percutaneous 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 09CX3ZZ

UNSPSC 85562855 Extirpation of matter from left sphenoid sinus, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure for sinus drainage — does not align with the state and local opportunities posted under this taxonomy entry. Recent solicitations tagged to this code address occupational health examinations, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, specialty surgical carve-out networks, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the surgical procedure the code nominally describes. This mismatch suggests either a classification error in the state and local procurement systems or that the code serves as a catch-all category for medical and health services procurement not otherwise specified.

The recent opportunities span multiple states and issuing-body types. The Washington State Department of Transportation's Washington State Ferries posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, on behalf of the Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards, solicited independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (RFP due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach issued an RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence (due October 7, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (due September 25, 2026); Collier County Board of County Commissioners sought Pharmacy Benefit Management services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members (RFP due April 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System established a multi-award vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (proposals due October 7, 2026). State and local government buyers tagging work to this code are pursuing vendors capable of managing occupational health programs, disability medical administration, behavioral health networks, and clinical staffing — substantially different from the surgical procedure the Commodity nominally describes.
