UNSPSC 85621177 Drainage of left carotid body, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted under this code actually solicit occupational medical surveillance services, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, health professional staffing pools, surgical benefit carve-outs for employee health plans, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which align with the code's stated scope. This mismatch suggests the code has been misapplied or the opportunities were tagged incorrectly by issuing bodies.

The geographic spread of the few posted opportunities spans Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with no concentration in any single jurisdiction or region. Issuing bodies include state transportation departments, city retirement offices, county health systems, and county procurement divisions. Without opportunities genuinely aligned to the code's nominal scope, the code does not represent an active procurement category for business development purposes in state and local government.
