UNSPSC 85621376: Drainage of right carotid body with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right carotid body with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0G9740Z

UNSPSC 85621376 (Drainage of right carotid body with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach), a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope — a highly specific surgical procedure — does not align with the state and local opportunities recently tagged to it. Recent solicitations under this code span independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty healthcare for youth in detention, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the carotid drainage procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either miscoding at the source level or that the code is being used as a catch-all for health services procurement more broadly, rather than for the specific surgical intervention its name indicates.

The issuing bodies represent diverse state and local jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and the County of Santa Clara. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Without visibility into actual procurement volume or contract awards under this code, and given the disconnect between the code's surgical scope and the health-services opportunities tagged to it, the code does not represent a reliable signal for vendors pursuing procedural medical device or surgical services contracts with state and local buyers.
