UNSPSC 85802144: Immobilization of face using other device

This placement 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 2W31XYZ

UNSPSC 85802144 Immobilization of face using other device, a Commodity code, does not align with the state and local contract opportunities recently posted under this classification. The code's nominal scope—medical devices for facial immobilization—bears no meaningful connection to the procurement activity actually tagged with this code in the source material.

The recent opportunities logged under 85802144 span nursing staffing for medically fragile students, virtual urgent care services, mobile dialysis services, laboratory equipment maintenance, DOT medical physicals, laboratory services, emergency medical technician staffing, fire department health assessments, occupational health services, clinical laboratory testing, lead sample analysis, phlebotomy and courier services, blood products distribution, histology services, postmortem testing, drug and alcohol testing, medical review officer services, and occupational wellness examinations. None of these solicitations involve facial immobilization devices. The mismatch suggests either a systematic miscoding by participating jurisdictions or a data integrity issue in how opportunities have been tagged to this commodity. Given the absence of relevant recent activity, this code is not worth pursuing at this time.
