UNSPSC 85581892: Destruction of lower tooth, single, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of lower tooth, single, external 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 0C5XXZ0

UNSPSC 85581892 Destruction of lower tooth, single, external approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific dental surgical procedure. However, the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code do not reflect dental extraction work. Instead, they encompass comprehensive healthcare services procurement by county governments and municipalities — including inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for mental health workers, and fire department medical director contracts. The mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual work being solicited suggests this code sees little relevant recent activity for vendors pursuing traditional dental services or oral surgery contracts.

Activity under this code appears concentrated in Florida and Georgia, with recent solicitations from Collier County and Monroe County in Florida, Muscogee County in Georgia, San Mateo County in California, and the City of Santa Monica in California. Representative opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (due April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members (due April 16, 2026). The issuing bodies span county purchasing divisions, county health departments, and municipal fire departments. None of these solicitations represent dental extraction or oral surgical procedures, indicating a significant coding misalignment in the state and local procurement system.
