UNSPSC 85541811: Revision of extraluminal device in thoracic duct, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of extraluminal device in thoracic duct, percutaneous 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 07WK3CZ

UNSPSC 85541811 Revision of extraluminal device in thoracic duct, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows little alignment between the code's nominal medical-device scope and the state and local contract opportunities actually posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged to this code cover occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency youth custody medical services — none of which involve thoracic-duct device revision or percutaneous procedures. The code appears to have been misapplied or to serve as a catch-all tag for health-care-related procurements by state and local issuers without precision matching to the UNSPSC taxonomy's medical-device classification.

The issuing bodies span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of Washington State Ferries), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), and regional health systems (Santa Clara Health System), with activity concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations with a due date of October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for disability medical record summary and independent medical evaluation services with a due date of October 16, 2026 and a contract cap of $750,000 over five years; and Santa Clara County Health System's qualification-based solicitation for temporary ancillary health professional staffing with a due date of October 7, 2026. The code's current tagging suggests a vendor evaluating opportunities here should focus on bid-response capability across diverse health-care service lines rather than assume device-oriented procurement activity.
