UNSPSC 85582636: Release left parotid duct, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release left parotid duct, percutaneous 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 0CNC3ZZ

UNSPSC 85582636 Release left parotid duct, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with a nominal scope focused on a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code shows no alignment with that clinical definition. The most-recent opportunities record medical and healthcare administrative services solicitations—inmate prison healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve parotid duct procedures or surgical interventions. The code appears to be a classification mismatch in state and local procurement systems rather than an active market for the clinical service the code nominally describes.

Given the misalignment between the code's stated scope and the actual work being solicited, this code does not represent a coherent procurement category for business development purposes. State and local agencies are applying the code to disparate healthcare and administrative service categories that bear no relationship to the surgical procedure the Commodity code names. No representative recent opportunities exist for parotid duct release services under this code, and pursuing it as a narrowly defined clinical service category would be unproductive. The underlying healthcare and support-service opportunities are real—Columbus Consolidated Government is seeking inmate medical and pharmacy services for Muscogee County Prison (RFP due May 15, 2026), Collier County is procuring Pharmacy Benefit Management Services (RFP due April 9, 2026), and Monroe County is seeking Virtual Primary Care Services (RFP due April 16, 2026)—but they are distributed across mismatched UNSPSC codes and should be tracked by their actual commodity families (healthcare administration, pharmacy services, clinical care delivery) rather than this surgical-procedure code.
