UNSPSC 85563506: Repair nasopharynx, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair nasopharynx, 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 09QN3ZZ

UNSPSC 85563506 Repair nasopharynx, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that sits misaligned with the recent state and local contract activity in the source. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, but the five most recent state and local solicitations tagged under it procure comprehensive healthcare services — inmate medical and pharmacy management, pharmacy benefit administration, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for behavioral health workers, and emergency medical services direction — none of which involve nasopharyngeal repair or percutaneous surgical intervention. The mismatch suggests either category assignment error in the source data or that this UNSPSC code is being used by procurement systems to capture broader healthcare service procurement rather than the specific surgical commodity its name describes.

The issuing bodies span county government, municipal fire departments, and county health authorities across Florida, Georgia, and California. Collier County, Monroe County, and Columbus Consolidated Government (Muscogee County Prison) posted the most recent RFPs in April and March 2026; Santa Monica Fire Department and San Mateo County Health posted earlier-dated RFPs in February and May 2025. Because the code shows no meaningful recent activity aligned with nasopharyngeal repair procurement and the few records present reflect general healthcare contracting rather than specialty surgical services, this code presents limited strategic value for vendors focused on the commodity's stated scope. Vendors pursuing healthcare services under state and local codes should verify actual commodity assignment rather than relying on this code's nominal description.
