UNSPSC 85583654: Replacement of left vocal cord with autologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left vocal cord with autologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening. 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 0CRV77Z

UNSPSC 85583654, Replacement of left vocal cord with autologous tissue substitute via natural or artificial opening, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure for vocal cord replacement using autologous tissue, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged to it do not procure this procedure. Instead, the posted solicitations cover occupational medical surveillance services, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, youth detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the narrow clinical scope of vocal cord replacement surgery.

The mismatch between the code's procedural definition and actual procurement activity suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or that this Commodity code does not reflect current state and local buying patterns for vocal cord procedures. Without opportunities that genuinely solicit vocal cord replacement services, diagnostics, equipment, or related supplies, the code presents minimal decision-relevant signal for business development targeting this specific work. Firms should verify code alignment directly with issuing jurisdictions before pursuing opportunities under this designation.
