UNSPSC 85581339: Removal of radioactive element from mouth and throat, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of radioactive element from mouth and throat, 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 0CPY71Z

UNSPSC 85581339 Removal of radioactive element from mouth and throat, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its medical-procedure scope. The six recent opportunities posted under this code between July and September 2026 involve independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit management and Centers of Excellence networks, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty hospital services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve removal of radioactive elements from the mouth or throat. The code appears to reflect a clinical taxonomy misalignment rather than active state and local demand for the specific procedure named; state and local procurement offices do not routinely solicit radioactive-element removal services as a standalone contracting line.

The geographic spread of the recent postings covers Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), but this distribution reflects the general medical-services opportunities tagged under the code rather than demand specific to the code's nominal scope. No issuing body appears more than once in the recent opportunity block. Given the procedural and clinical mismatch between the code's definition and the work actually being solicited, this code does not present a decision-relevant pursue signal for firms offering radioactive-element removal or related radiation-safety services to state and local government.
