UNSPSC 85621100: Adrenal glands-neuroendocrine ganglia, open approach

This class includes one or more of 15 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the structures of the adrenal glands and neuroendocrine ganglia with open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0G.

UNSPSC 85621100 Adrenal glands–neuroendocrine ganglia, open approach is a Class code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal medical-surgical scope. The six recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, disability medical evaluations for pension systems, surgical benefits carve-outs, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve adrenal gland or neuroendocrine ganglia procedures or related surgical instrumentation. The mismatch suggests these opportunities were tagged with the code in error or that state and local procurement systems are classifying administrative and clinical contracting activity under a code designed for operative surgical commodities rather than services or support functions.

Given the absence of genuine procurement activity under the code's actual scope, no representative solicitations or geographic concentration can be meaningfully characterized. Practitioners pursuing state and local work in occupational medicine, pension-system medical administration, pharmacy benefits, or clinical staffing should verify the correct UNSPSC codes in source solicitations rather than rely on this code's recent record. If surgical instrumentation or operative services for adrenal procedures are of interest, monitoring this code in the future may prove useful only if issuing bodies begin tagging correctly.
