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

UNSPSC 85582813 Occlusion of right parotid duct, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its medical procedure scope. The recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code encompass disability medical evaluations, 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 constitute endoscopic occlusion procedures or related specialty surgical services. The mismatch suggests that state and local procurement offices are misapplying this code to general healthcare services and benefits administration rather than to the specific otolaryngological procedure the code describes.

The issuing bodies in the recent opportunities span diverse 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). Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Texas, Florida, and Washington. Without solicitations actually seeking endoscopic parotid duct occlusion services, bidders evaluating this code for state and local procurement should treat it as inactive under its nominal scope and investigate whether the code has been applied correctly in any jurisdiction's procurement taxonomy.
