This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left vocal cord with nonautologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic. 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 0CUV8KZ

UNSPSC 85583611 Supplement left vocal cord with nonautologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure using synthetic vocal cord material — bears no relationship to the state and local opportunities tagged under it. Recent solicitations under this code are unrelated to surgical vocal cord augmentation and instead span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, emergency youth detention medical care, and temporary health professional staffing. The mismatch between the code's name and the work actually being solicited indicates either tagging error or fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how the issuing bodies in this sample classify health services procurement. No solicitation in the recent-opportunities block concerns vocal cord supplementation or otolaryngological procedures of any kind.

The issuing bodies across these six opportunities span a state agency (Washington State Department of Transportation), a large county (Harris County), a smaller county (Collier County, Florida), a county health system (Santa Clara County), and two major cities (Phoenix and Long Beach). Geographic distribution includes Washington, Texas, Florida, Arizona, and California. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFQ (due October 9, 2026), Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation RFP for disability benefit determinations (due October 16, 2026), and Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out RFP for Centers of Excellence networks (due October 7, 2026). Given the absence of any recent solicitations matching the code's stated scope, this code should not be relied upon for business development guidance in vocal cord procedures or otolaryngology.
