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 0C9R0ZZ

UNSPSC 85583367 Drainage of epiglottis, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five most recently posted opportunities tagged under this code—spanning inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for peer workers, and a fire department medical director role—are substantially unrelated to the surgical drainage procedure named in the code's taxonomy. None of the solicitations reference or require epiglottis drainage services or related surgical procedures; instead, the opportunities range across institutional healthcare administration, behavioral health support, and EMS medical direction.

The geographic and issuing-body mix across these opportunities reflects broader state and local health and human services procurement rather than surgical specialty services. Soliciting bodies include Columbus Consolidated Government (Georgia), Collier County (Florida), Monroe County (Florida), San Mateo County (California), and Santa Monica Fire Department (California), with response dates spanning February through May 2026. The mismatch between the code's narrow clinical focus and the actual scope of work being purchased suggests either miscoding at the point of posting or incidental tagging that does not reflect genuine procurement demand for epiglottis drainage procedures at the state and local level. Firms pursuing this code should verify with issuing bodies whether surgical specialty services are genuinely in scope before pursuing.
