UNSPSC 85583328: Replacement of right vocal cord with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right vocal cord with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0CRT0KZ

UNSPSC 85583328 "Replacement of right vocal cord with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach" is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope — a highly specific surgical procedure on laryngeal tissue — does not align with the state and local contract opportunities currently tagged under it. The six recent opportunities span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, specialty surgical benefit carve-outs, emergency and inpatient hospital services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve vocal cord replacement or related laryngeal surgery, and none appear to be procuring surgical implants or tissue substitutes of any kind. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the source data or that this Commodity code does not reflect active state and local procurement demand.

The issuing bodies tagged under this code include county government (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), city agencies (Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and regional health systems. Activity appears geographically distributed across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Without opportunities that actually address vocal cord replacement or laryngeal procedures, readers evaluating this code for business development should verify the UNSPSC classification against their own service offerings and recent RFP streams before committing pursuit resources.
