UNSPSC 85621144: Extirpation of matter from coccygeal glomus, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from coccygeal glomus, open approach. 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 0GCB0ZZ

UNSPSC 85621144 Extirpation of matter from coccygeal glomus, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows little relevance to the code's clinical description. The opportunities posted under this code — independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, surgical procedure carve-outs for city health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — span administrative medical services, benefits management, and clinical staffing rather than coccygeal glomus procedures. The issuing bodies represent a mix of city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal governments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county government (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and health systems, indicating the code captures a broad range of government health services procurement unrelated to its stated procedural scope.

Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit applications, due October 16, 2026, with a five-year contract ceiling of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals, due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFS (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026. The code shows substantial activity but appears to be a classification mismatch — state and local procurement offices are tagging general health services administration and staffing under a code intended for a specific surgical procedure.
