This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left temporal bone, percutaneous approach.

UNSPSC 85683089 Destruction of left temporal bone, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure on the temporal bone; the recent opportunities posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical director roles—none of which involve destruction of temporal bone or percutaneous surgical procedures. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited suggests either miscoding at the issuing-body level or a fundamental misalignment in how this code is being applied to health services and administration contracts.

The opportunities that do appear under this code originate from diverse state and local issuing bodies: the Columbus Consolidated Government (Georgia county detention facility medical services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida employee pharmacy benefit management), Monroe County Board of County Commissioners (Florida virtual care services), San Mateo County Health Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (California peer support services), and the Santa Monica Fire Department (California medical director services). The geographic spread spans Georgia, Florida, and California. Representative recent solicitations include RFP No. 26-0008 from the Columbus Consolidated Government for inmate medical and pharmacy services with a May 15, 2026 response date, and RFP 25-8414 from Collier County for pharmacy benefit management services with proposals valid through April 9, 2026. Neither opportunity involves the destruction of left temporal bone. Given the code's lack of alignment with posted opportunities, vendors targeting this code should verify correct UNSPSC coding with potential customers before investing in pursuit strategy.
