This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in larynx, external 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 0CWSXKZ

UNSPSC 85583201 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in larynx, external approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code designation does not match the work actually being procured under recent state and local opportunities tagged to it. The recent solicitations—independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical Centers of Excellence benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—address healthcare program administration, occupational health compliance, and clinical staffing, not laryngeal tissue substitute procedures or otolaryngological surgical revisions.

State and local issuers soliciting under this code span city retirement offices, municipalities, state transportation departments, county juvenile justice systems, county health departments, and regional health systems across Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations with a five-year contract ceiling of $750,000 and an October 16, 2026 response deadline; the Washington State Department of Transportation issued an RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with a two-year base term and responses due October 9, 2026; Collier County issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services with historical annual spend of approximately $8.7 million and a deadline of April 9, 2026 (now past); and the County of Santa Clara Health System established a multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories with responses due October 7, 2026. The mismatch between code definition and procurement activity suggests the code may be misapplied to administrative healthcare service categories rather than reserved for surgical device or tissue substitute procurement at the commodity level.
