UNSPSC 85652436 Destruction of tongue, palate, pharynx muscle, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 tagged to this code—covering independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefits, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—bear no operational connection to the code's nominal scope of percutaneous destruction of pharyngeal muscle tissue. State and local procurement systems occasionally misclassify medical services under anatomical procedure codes; the mismatch here is systematic and material enough to signal that this code does not reflect genuine demand for the procedure it names.

No state and local opportunities targeting percutaneous destruction of tongue, palate, or pharynx muscle have surfaced in recent posting activity. Vendors pursuing this code should treat it as inactive in state and local markets and monitor for reclassification or correction of the underlying taxonomy mapping.
