UNSPSC 85583027: Extirpation of matter from minor salivary gland, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from minor salivary gland, open 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 0CCJ0ZZ

UNSPSC 85583027 Extirpation of matter from minor salivary gland, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure on salivary tissue, but the six recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency youth detention healthcare — none of which involve salivary gland surgery. State and local procurement offices appear to have applied this code inconsistently or erroneously to healthcare administration, benefits management, and occupational health contracts that do not match the code's clinical procedure scope.

The recent opportunities reflect typical state and local healthcare purchasing: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years); the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance (due October 9, 2026); Collier County issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 members; the City of Long Beach posted an RFP for surgical benefit carve-out services (due October 7, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System solicited a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). These opportunities span Arizona, Washington, Florida, California, and Texas. The code shows no recent activity that directly matches the salivary gland extirpation scope, and purchasing professionals should verify coding accuracy before pursuing work under this classification.
