UNSPSC 85541828 Removal of infusion device from cisterna chyli, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure involving removal of an infusion device from the cisterna chyli using a percutaneous approach — a narrowly defined clinical intervention that does not correspond to the services state and local governments are soliciting.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code represent a broad portfolio of health services contracting that spans occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical Center of Excellence networks, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth. None of these activities involve the specific procedure named in the code. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and what is actually being bought suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or a systemic issue with how this Commodity code has been applied in state and local procurement systems. State and local buyers are clearly active in health services procurement — the opportunities include issuances from the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and the County of Santa Clara — but none of these solicitations are purchasing infusion device removal procedures. No procurement opportunity in the source material reflects the code's stated scope.
