UNSPSC 85582551: Occlusion of left parotid duct with extraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left parotid duct with extraluminal device, open 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 0CLC0CZ

UNSPSC 85582551 Occlusion of left parotid duct with extraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure involving parotid duct occlusion—does not align with any of the six recent opportunities posted under this code identifier, which instead cover occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical center-of-excellence carve-out benefits, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error or a persistent misapplication of the code by issuing bodies, rendering the code unreliable as a guide to actual procurement activity.

No actionable state and local procurement solicitations exist under this code at present. Vendors should monitor whether issuing bodies continue to tag unrelated healthcare services and benefit-administration work under this surgical-procedure code, or whether the code is corrected to reflect its intended scope. The code's continued use for non-surgical health services and staffing contracting makes it unsuitable for business development targeting in its current form.
