UNSPSC 85763950: Control bleeding in oral cavity and throat, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to control bleeding in oral cavity and throat, external 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 0W33XZZ

UNSPSC 85763950 Control bleeding in oral cavity and throat, external approach is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it bears no clear relationship to the code's nominal scope. The posted opportunities instead reflect broad healthcare service procurement — inmate medical and pharmacy management for a county correctional facility, pharmacy benefit management for a county employee health plan, virtual primary and urgent care services for a county workforce, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services. None of these solicitations center on hemorrhage control or oral and throat bleeding interventions as discrete products or services.

The geographic spread of tagged opportunities spans Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Muscogee County), California (San Mateo County), and California (Santa Monica). Recent RFPs include the Columbus Consolidated Government's comprehensive medical and pharmacy services contract for Muscogee County Prison (RFP No. 26-0008, due May 15, 2026), Collier County's pharmacy benefit management services (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's virtual primary and urgent care platform (RFP, due April 16, 2026). The code shows inconsistent tagging: the opportunities posted under it are general healthcare service contracts rather than discrete oral hemostasis supplies or procedures, suggesting either miscoding at the source or a mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy and the way state and local procurement offices are applying it.
