UNSPSC 85542209: Removal of synthetic substitute from lymphatic, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from lymphatic, 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 07PN3JZ

UNSPSC 85542209 Removal of synthetic substitute from lymphatic, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not match the recent opportunities tagged under it, which involve occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit administration, surgical benefit carve-outs for public employee health plans, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these solicitations concern the removal of synthetic lymphatic substitutes. State and local governments do not appear to be procuring services or supplies under this code's intended scope in the current market.

The recent-opportunities block shows no relevant activity. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) addresses disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel; the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) covers baseline and periodic examinations for ferry workers; Collier County's pharmacy benefit management RFP (258414, closed April 9, 2026) procures claims processing and formulary services; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's vendor-pool RFSQ (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) establishes a temporary staffing roster for ancillary clinical categories. These opportunities represent health-plan administration, occupational health compliance, and staffing—not surgical procedure supply or removal services. The mismatch between code and content suggests either a tagging error in the underlying procurement database or that this code sits dormant in state and local procurement. Vendors pursuing activity in occupational health, benefits administration, or temporary clinical staffing should use industry-standard codes or category names rather than rely on 85542209 to surface relevant opportunities.
