UNSPSC 85682101: Release hyoid bone, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release hyoid bone, 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 0NNX4ZZ

UNSPSC 85682101 Release hyoid bone, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The four recent opportunities tagged to this code — inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county prison, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services for county members, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — bear no relationship to surgical procedures or orthopedic interventions. The code's nominal scope (a specific surgical technique) does not align with the health care administration, managed care, and behavioral health contracting that state and local procurement offices are actually buying under this tag, indicating a classification mismatch rather than active demand for the procedure itself.

State and local governments do not appear to be soliciting surgical services or procedure-specific medical contracting under this code. The recent opportunities cluster around administrative and program-level health services — managed care administration, pharmacy network management, virtual care platform delivery, and peer worker support — rather than individual surgical interventions or procedure codes. Unless future opportunities begin to reflect genuine surgical contracting activity under this code, practitioners should treat this as an inactive or misclassified procurement category for business development purposes.
