UNSPSC 85581702: Repair pharynx, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair pharynx, 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 0CQM4ZZ

UNSPSC 85581702 Repair pharynx, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged to this code. The source shows no solicitations for percutaneous endoscopic pharyngeal repair procedures. Instead, the code has been applied to five unrelated opportunities spanning inmate medical and pharmacy services, county pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve the specific surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by the issuing bodies or a data error in the taxonomy assignment.

State and local procurement activity under this code, as currently tagged, reflects a fragmented mix of healthcare administration and services contracting across different issuing bodies and geographies. The Columbus Consolidated Government (Muscogee County, Georgia) posted an RFP for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services for a 576-bed correctional facility, due May 15, 2026, with current monthly costs of $95,537.71; Collier County, Florida issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 members with historical annual spending of $8.7 million, due April 9, 2026; Monroe County, Florida sought virtual primary and urgent care services for 2,300 county members through an RFP due April 16, 2026; San Mateo County, California issued an RFP for a mental health peer support pilot project funded at $580,000 over three years, due July 2, 2025; and the Santa Monica Fire Department posted an RFP for a medical director, due October 16, 2025. The code shows no dominant issuing body or geographic concentration—activity spans Georgia and California, with two Florida counties, across correctional healthcare, county employee benefits, municipal emergency services, and behavioral health. This code does not currently represent a coherent procurement category and warrants immediate reclassification review before pursuing opportunities under it.
