This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left sublingual 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 0C9F0ZZ

UNSPSC 85583047 Drainage of left sublingual gland, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure; however, the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show little alignment with the code's surgical scope. The six most recent postings span medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, youth detention healthcare, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees, and temporary ancillary health staffing — none of which involve sublingual gland drainage. The mismatch suggests either persistent miscoding in the issuing jurisdictions' procurement systems or a data-tagging error, as the opportunities reflect general health service procurement rather than a specific surgical intervention. State and local governments are not soliciting drainage procedures under this code at present.

The issuing bodies include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), spanning Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP due October 16, 2026, for independent medical evaluation services to support public safety pension disability determinations; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP due October 9, 2026, for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations; and Collier County posted an RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services historically spending $8.7 million annually. No recent opportunities reflect procurement of surgical drainage procedures or related surgical interventions, rendering this code unsuitable for business development targeting at this time.
