UNSPSC 85542911: Occlusion of thorax lymphatic with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of thorax lymphatic with intraluminal device, 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 07L70DZ

UNSPSC 85542911 Occlusion of thorax lymphatic with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure involving thoracic lymphatic occlusion — bears no relationship to the six recent solicitations on file, which cover independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, juvenile detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. State and local procurement activity under this code shows no relevant recent opportunities.

The mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy entry and the actual solicitations suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or a persistent tagging problem within the issuing bodies' procurement systems. Vendors evaluating opportunities under this code should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing any work, as the code as currently tagged does not reflect genuine state and local buying activity in thoracic lymphatic procedures or related medical devices.
