UNSPSC 85541943: Removal of infusion device from thoracic duct, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of infusion 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 07PK43Z

UNSPSC 85541943 Removal of infusion device from thoracic duct, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code do not procure surgical device removal services or related clinical supplies. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical center-of-excellence networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency services for youth in custody—none of which involve infusion device removal or thoracic duct procedures. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the actual scope of posted opportunities suggests either a classification error in how state and local procurement offices have tagged these solicitations or an indication that this code does not meaningfully represent current state and local buying activity in its stated domain.

Recent opportunities span several issuing bodies and states with no meaningful concentration. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona) posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach (California) posted an RFP for surgical center-of-excellence benefit carve-out services due October 7, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas) posted an RFI for specialty medical services due September 25, 2026; the County of Santa Clara Health System (California) posted an RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026; and Collier County (Florida) posted an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services with a deadline of April 9, 2026. The geographic and functional diversity of these solicitations, coupled with their divergence from the code's stated clinical procedure scope, indicates that this code does not represent a coherent procurement category for state and local business development purposes.
