UNSPSC 85621219: Release bilateral carotid bodies, percutaneous 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 0GN83ZZ

UNSPSC 85621219 Release bilateral carotid bodies, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity in the source data. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the five opportunities posted between February and April 2026 across Florida, Georgia, and California cover inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management administration, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and emergency medical services medical direction — none of which involve the carotid body procedure named in the code. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the opportunity coding or a fundamental misalignment between the code's clinical scope and the kinds of health services state and local jurisdictions are actually procuring.

The source shows no recent solicitations that call for carotid body release procedures or related surgical services. No state or local health department, county commissioners board, fire department, or correctional health provider in the data set has posted an RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB for this specific procedure or for surgical services aligned with the code's definition. Given the divergence between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited, the code shows little relevant current activity for business development purposes in state and local procurement.
