UNSPSC 85541941: Removal of extraluminal device from thoracic duct, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of extraluminal device from thoracic duct, percutaneous endoscopic 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 07PK4CZ

UNSPSC 85541941 Removal of extraluminal device from thoracic duct, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code with no material recent state or local procurement activity aligned to its clinical scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code — independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit program carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, juvenile detention medical services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — do not involve removal of extraluminal thoracic duct devices or related surgical interventions. The code appears to describe a highly specialized surgical procedure unlikely to generate state or local procurement demand through traditional competitive solicitation vehicles.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the recent opportunities it carries signals that state and local procurement systems may have applied this code incorrectly to health services categories that fall outside its intended clinical definition. Absent evidence of legitimate demand for thoracic duct surgery procurement by state agencies, counties, municipalities, or other public bodies, this code does not merit active pursuit.
