UNSPSC 85562938: Drainage of right mastoid sinus, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right mastoid 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 099B3ZZ

UNSPSC 85562938, Drainage of right mastoid sinus, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its medical procedure classification. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefits for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which represent drainage procedures or ENT surgical services. The code's abstract classification does not match what state and local jurisdictions are actually buying in the posted solicitations.

The mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error in the source system or that this code tier does not reflect current state and local procurement patterns for mastoid sinus procedures. No representative opportunities in the recent block involve ENT surgical drainage, and the issuing bodies — the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and Santa Clara County Health System — are sourcing administrative healthcare services, benefits management, and staffing rather than specific surgical procedures. Without recent solicitations genuinely aligned to the code's scope, no reliable characterization of issuing-body mix, geographic concentration, or current market activity is supported by the source.
