UNSPSC 85563214: Supplement nasopharynx via natural or artificial opening nonautologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement nasopharynx via natural or artificial opening nonautologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening. 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 09UN7KZ

UNSPSC 85563214, Supplement nasopharynx via natural or artificial opening nonautologous tissue substitute, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal medical procedure scope. The recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code include independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve nasopharyngeal supplementation or tissue-substitute procedures. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the breadth of healthcare administration and staffing services tagged to it suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a UNSPSC classification that does not align with how state and local procurement offices actually use it.

The opportunities posted under this code span multiple issuing bodies and geographies: the City of Phoenix (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (Washington), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Recent solicitations include an RFP from the City of Phoenix Retirement Office for independent medical evaluation services with proposals due October 16, 2026, an RFP from the City of Long Beach for surgical procedure carve-out benefit services due October 7, 2026, and an RFP from the Washington State Department of Transportation for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026. Without recent opportunities demonstrating actual procurement of nasopharyngeal tissue supplements or related procedural materials, this code does not present a clear pursuit pathway for vendors in tissue-replacement or surgical-supply categories.
