UNSPSC 85542511: Revision of drainage device in thymus, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of drainage device in thymus, open 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 07WM00Z

UNSPSC 85542511 Revision of drainage device in thymus, open approach is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it do not align with surgical procedures on thymic structures. Instead, the recent solicitations reflect medical evaluation, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and clinical staffing services — none of which correspond to the code's nominal scope of surgical intervention. The Phoenix Retirement Office is procuring independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations, including medical record summarization and scheduling of examinations for approximately 75 annual cases; the Washington State Department of Transportation's Washington State Ferries division seeks occupational medical surveillance for vessel and terminal workers across 14 locations; the County of Santa Clara Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing in audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, and other specialties; and Collier County is soliciting pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 7,200 covered members. The code shows little relevant activity in actual thymic surgical revision procedures and appears to be a misclassification in the state and local procurement system.

Geographic activity spans Washington State (occupational surveillance at WSF locations), Arizona (Phoenix pension board disability evaluations), California (Santa Clara County health staffing and Long Beach surgical carve-out for Centers of Excellence), Texas (Harris County juvenile probation medical services), and Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management). Issuing bodies include city retirement offices, state transportation agencies, county health systems, and county human resources divisions. The Long Beach RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits (due October 7, 2026) and the WSDOT occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) are the most recent substantive opportunities, but neither represents work within the code's stated commodity definition.
