UNSPSC 85542912: Occlusion of thorax lymphatic with extraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of thorax lymphatic with extraluminal 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 07L70CZ

UNSPSC 85542912 Occlusion of thorax lymphatic with extraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement opportunities on record. The recent solicitations tagged under this code—independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—involve healthcare administration, occupational health programs, and clinical staffing services, none of which relate to thoracic lymphatic occlusion devices or surgical procedures. The code appears to be a mismatch to the work actually being solicited.

The opportunities do signal active state and local healthcare procurement across issuing bodies including city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington), county juvenile probation and health systems (Harris County, Santa Clara County), and county employee benefits programs (Collier County), with a geographic footprint spanning Arizona, California, Washington, and Florida. However, without alignment between the nominal UNSPSC scope and the actual work being bought, the code shows little relevant recent activity for procurement professionals pursuing medical device or surgical supply contracts. Vendors offering thoracic lymphatic occlusion devices or related surgical services should verify the correct commodity classification before pursuing opportunities listed under this code.
