UNSPSC 85583126: Extirpation of matter from right parotid gland, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right parotid gland, percutaneous 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 0CC83ZZ

UNSPSC 85583126, Extirpation of matter from right parotid gland, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code do not involve parotid gland procedures or related surgical interventions. Instead, the opportunities are soliciting occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which align with the code's narrow clinical scope. The mismatch suggests either tagging error or that procurement offices are using this code incorrectly to classify broader health services administration and staffing rather than a specific surgical procedure.

The opportunities that appear under this code involve issuing bodies across multiple states and governance structures: 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). None of these recent procurements target the procedure named in the code itself. Given the lack of alignment between the code definition and actual recent solicitation activity, firms evaluating this UNSPSC category should verify coding accuracy with procuring agencies before investing pursuit resources.
