UNSPSC 85622567: Excision of left thyroid gland lobe, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left thyroid gland lobe, 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 0GBG4ZZ

UNSPSC 85622567 (Excision of left thyroid gland lobe, percutaneous endoscopic approach) is a Commodity code with minimal relevance to state and local government procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure and does not align with the work state and local jurisdictions are actively soliciting. Recent opportunities posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve thyroid surgery or percutaneous endoscopic procedures. The mismatch indicates either a data error in how opportunities were tagged to the code or that the code is being used as a default classification for health services contracts without regard to the nominal procedure-specific scope.

State and local buyers issuing opportunities under this code tag include county governments (Muscogee County, Georgia; Collier County, Florida; Monroe County, Florida; Santa Mateo County, California) and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica Fire Department, California). The opportunities reflect broad health services contracting — inmate healthcare, employee pharmacy benefits, virtual care platforms, behavioral health support, and emergency medical direction — rather than surgical procedures. Geographic activity appears concentrated in Florida and California, with isolated activity in Georgia. Without recent opportunities that actually align to the code's nominal scope, the code signals limited or misdirected purchasing activity and warrants clarification on proper code assignment before pursuing opportunities posted under it.
