UNSPSC 85681165: Resection of right palatine bone, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of right palatine bone, open 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 0NTK0ZZ

UNSPSC 85681165 Resection of right palatine bone, open approach is a Commodity code that the recent state and local procurement record shows sees little relevant activity aligned with its nominal surgical-procedure scope. The code's abstract medical designation does not match the healthcare contracting activity appearing in the recent opportunities block: the posted solicitations span inmate medical and pharmacy services management (Columbus Consolidated Government, Muscogee County Prison), pharmacy benefit management administration (Collier County, Florida), virtual primary and urgent care platform services (Monroe County, Florida), peer support services for mental health workers (San Mateo County, California), and fire department medical direction (Santa Monica Fire Department, California). None of these opportunities involve resection of palatine bone or surgical procedures. The mismatch suggests this code is either a tagging error in the sourcing system or remains unused in state and local procurement for its intended orthopedic or ENT surgical purpose.

Issuers across the opportunities block span county governments, municipal fire departments, and county health and behavioral health divisions across Florida, Georgia, and California. The geographic spread includes single postings from Columbus, Georgia; Collier County and Monroe County, Florida; San Mateo County, California; and Santa Monica, California. Response dates for the handful of visible opportunities range from April 2026 through July 2025. Given the absence of opportunities matching the code's surgical scope and the presence only of healthcare administration and services contracting, this code does not warrant active pursuit in state and local procurement targeting at this time.
