UNSPSC 85582705: Occlusion of right parotid duct with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right parotid duct with intraluminal device, 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 0CLB4DZ

UNSPSC 85582705 (Occlusion of right parotid duct with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach), a Commodity code, does not align with the scope of recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this classification. The code describes a specific surgical procedure for parotid duct obstruction; however, the six most recently posted opportunities soliciting under this code address independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve parotid duct procedures or the specialized endoscopic intervention the code nominally covers. This appears to be a systematic cataloging mismatch between the UNSPSC assignment and the actual procurement activity the code is being used to track in state and local systems.

The issuing bodies span multiple jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). No recent opportunities show purchasing activity that matches the code's stated procedural scope. Given the consistent mismatch between code definition and posted solicitations, vendors pursuing state and local work under this code should verify the actual commodity or service family they intend to pursue rather than rely on this code's nominal classification.
