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.

UNSPSC 85582815 Occlusion of right parotid duct, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that bears no relation to the state and local procurement activity currently posted under it. The source contains no medical procedures or surgical interventions matching the code's nominal clinical scope. Instead, recent solicitations tagged to this code encompass health benefits administration, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and independent disability medical evaluations—none of which involve parotid duct procedures or orofacial surgery. The issuing bodies include city health systems, county human resources departments, state transportation agencies, county juvenile justice departments, and county benefits consortiums, reflecting a mix of municipal employee health benefits, public-sector occupational health, and specialized medical services procurement rather than any surgical or procedural activity. This mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source or a systemic misalignment between the code's clinical definition and the work actually being purchased under it.

Recent representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP 26001 (due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations, valued at $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 (due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations, with pre-bid conference August 31, 2026; the City of Long Beach's RFP HR26753 (due October 7, 2026) for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits serving approximately 3,800 active employees and retirees; and Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members, with $8.7 million in historical annual pharmacy spending. Geographic activity spans Arizona, Washington, California, and Florida, with activity concentrated in major metropolitan areas and state health systems. The code shows no relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope and should be treated as inactive or miscoded for parotid duct procedures.
