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 0CUR0JZ

UNSPSC 85583316 Supplement epiglottis with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work being solicited in recent state and local contract opportunities. The available opportunities are tagged with this code but involve healthcare service procurement—inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for mental health workers, and fire department medical direction—none of which align with surgical prosthetic implantation. The code shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and the healthcare administration and clinical services being purchased by state and local issuers.

Recent opportunities span Florida counties (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia municipalities (Columbus Consolidated Government / Muscogee County), and California counties (San Mateo County), with issuers including county commissioners' boards, consolidated city governments, and county health agencies. The kinds of work actually being solicited include comprehensive jail medical and pharmacy management (Columbus Consolidated Government RFP 26-0008, due May 15, 2026), pharmacy benefit management administration for employee health plans (Collier County RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026), virtual primary care and urgent care platform services (Monroe County RFP, due April 16, 2026), peer support services for mental health workers (San Mateo County RFP 2025-007), and fire department medical direction (Santa Monica Fire Department RFP 455). Given the divergence between the code definition and the actual procurement activity, this code does not appear to be a reliable taxonomy entry for state and local health services solicitation and should not be used as a filtering mechanism for business development targeting in healthcare services.
