UNSPSC 85563069: Extraction of right mastoid sinus, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extraction of right mastoid sinus, percutaneous endoscopic 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 09DB4ZZ

UNSPSC 85563069 Extraction of right mastoid sinus, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows a material mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local contract activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged under this code are administrative and staffing services for medical evaluation, pharmacy benefit management, health professional temporary staffing, occupational surveillance, and surgical carve-out program administration — none of which involve the mastoid sinus procedure named in the code. The issuing bodies across these opportunities span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), indicating that the code classification appears to be a data-entry or taxonomy-mapping error rather than a signal of genuine procurement activity for the surgical procedure itself. No recent opportunities sourced under this code reflect the extraction procedure it nominally describes.

The activity that is actually being solicited under this code shows no cohesive pattern aligned with the code's title. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office is seeking independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (RFP due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach is requesting proposals for a surgical carve-out benefit program with Centers of Excellence networks (RFP due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation is procuring occupational medical surveillance services (RFP due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference scheduled August 31, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth (response due September 25, 2026); Collier County is seeking pharmacy benefit management services (RFP due April 9, 2026); and Santa Clara County Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical specialties (RFQ due October 7, 2026). The classification of these diverse healthcare administration and staffing services under a code describing a specific surgical extraction procedure suggests systematic miscoding rather than a legitimate procurement category. Firms should verify code assignments independently before pursuing opportunities listed under this classification.
