UNSPSC 85622468: Destruction of thyroid 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 0G5K3ZZ

UNSPSC 85622468 Destruction of thyroid gland, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — a specific endocrine surgical procedure — does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it. The source shows no recent solicitations for thyroid destruction services or related endocrine surgical interventions. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code span medical staffing, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and pension disability evaluation services — none of which relate to thyroid procedures. The mismatch suggests either a coding error in the state or local procurement systems posting these opportunities or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy label and actual buying activity.

The six opportunities in the source span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington and include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations, RFP due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-out and Centers of Excellence network management, RFP due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers across 14 locations, RFP due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, RFI due September 25, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management services, RFP due April 9, 2026, approximately $8.7 million annually), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories, RFP due October 7, 2026). The code shows no coherent recent procurement activity relevant to its stated scope.
