UNSPSC 85582801: Restriction of left parotid duct, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left parotid duct, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic. 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 0CVC8ZZ

UNSPSC 85582801 Restriction of left parotid duct, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code with a significant mismatch between its nominal medical-procedure scope and the state and local procurement activity actually tagged to it. Recent solicitations posted under this code do not involve parotid duct restriction procedures or related surgical interventions. Instead, the code has been applied to a broad range of occupational health, disability evaluation, specialty care coordination, and health plan administration services that fall outside the procedural taxonomy the code name describes.

The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and agencies (Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and municipal retirement boards and health departments (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services covering baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry locations (due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services and disability record summarization for public-safety pension applicants with maximum compensation of $750,000 over five years (due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program offering Centers of Excellence for knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures (due October 7, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's RFQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, and surgical services (due October 7, 2026). These opportunities span occupational medicine, pension disability evaluation, specialty surgery networks, and temporary clinical staffing — none aligned with the parotid duct procedure nomenclature. Geographic activity appears concentrated in California, Arizona, and Washington, with additional activity in Florida and Texas. The code does not reliably flag procurement intent for vendors offering parotid duct procedures or related ear, nose, and throat surgical services.
