UNSPSC 85622014: Excision of pituitary gland, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of pituitary gland, 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 0GB03ZZ

UNSPSC 85622014 Excision of pituitary gland, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code are buying occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency youth detention medical services — none of which involve pituitary gland surgery. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source material or a systematic code-tagging problem that limits the usefulness of this code for understanding actual procurement patterns in state and local government.

Recent opportunities posted under this code span multiple jurisdictions and service types: the Washington State Department of Transportation is purchasing occupational medical surveillance services (proposal due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office is seeking disability medical record summary and independent medical evaluation services (proposal due October 16, 2026), Collier County is procuring pharmacy benefit management services (proposal deadline April 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach is seeking a surgical carve-out benefit program for Centers of Excellence (proposal due October 7, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (response due September 25, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (proposal due October 7, 2026). Because the code itself does not reflect what is actually being bought, business development professionals should verify procurement intent through the agency RFP directly rather than relying on this code classification for market-sizing or pursuit decisions.
