UNSPSC 85563620: Extirpation of matter from nose, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from nose, 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 09CK4ZZ

UNSPSC 85563620 Extirpation of matter from nose, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code's clinical specificity—a surgical procedure taxonomy entry—does not match the scope of work in recent solicitations posted under this code. The six state and local opportunities tagged to this UNSPSC span medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical procedure networks, youth detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve nasal extirpation procedures or endoscopic work. This classification mismatch suggests either systematic coding error or misapplication of the code by issuing bodies to capture broader health services procurement when no more precise commodity code exists in their systems.

The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation services, RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-out network management, RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (occupational medical surveillance, RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services RFI, due September 25, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management, RFP 25-8414), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing pool, RFP RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Because the code's nominal scope bears no practical relation to what state and local bodies are purchasing under it, vendors should verify the correct commodity classification before pursuing work; the apparent miscoding undermines the utility of this UNSPSC number for procurement planning.
