UNSPSC 85583660: Replacement of right 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 right 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 0CRT77Z

UNSPSC 85583660 Replacement of right vocal cord with autologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its stated scope. The six recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, disability benefit medical record review and independent medical examinations for public safety retirement systems, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which concern vocal cord replacement procedures or otolaryngologic tissue substitutes. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in opportunity classification or a fundamental disconnect between the code's clinical definition and the work actually being procured by state and local buyers under this tag.

The recent opportunities instead reflect state and local government demand for occupational health administration, third-party medical evaluation services supporting pension determinations, employee health benefit program management, youth detention healthcare, pharmacy administration, and temporary clinical staffing. If the code is being used to tag these administrative and staffing services rather than surgical procedures, prospective vendors should verify the actual scope of work in the RFP or RFQ itself before committing resources. Active recent issuing bodies include the Washington State Department of Transportation (Ferries division), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System, with opportunities posted between July and September 2026 and response dates between September 25 and October 16, 2026.
