UNSPSC 85583355: Extirpation of matter from larynx, 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 0CCS0ZZ

UNSPSC 85583355 Extirpation of matter from larynx, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity among state and local procurement bodies. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, but the six most recent state and local opportunities posted under this classification span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, surgical carve-out benefits management, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, and emergency medical services for youth detention — none of which align with the code's stated procedure scope. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or that this code has been repurposed in local taxonomies in ways that diverge substantially from the UNSPSC definition.

The issuing bodies across the sample include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), a city retirement office (Phoenix), and a municipal health system (Long Beach). Without additional opportunities coded to this Commodity that actually solicit laryngeal procedures or related surgical services, the code does not present a meaningful procurement signal for business development purposes in state and local markets. Firms pursuing medical services contracts should verify coding alignment directly with issuing bodies and focus on codes and opportunities that explicitly name the service lines they offer.
