UNSPSC 85542915: Occlusion of left axillary lymphatic with extraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left axillary 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 07L60CZ

UNSPSC 85542915 Occlusion of left axillary lymphatic with extraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a highly specific surgical procedure for lymphatic system intervention—bears no relation to the work actually being solicited under this code number by state and local issuing bodies. Recent opportunities tagged to this code include independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out program administration for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. These solicitations span healthcare administration, benefits management, and clinical staffing services—none of which involve the lymphatic occlusion procedure the code nominally describes.

The mismatch between the code's technical name and the actual procurement work suggests either a systematic miscoding issue in the issuing bodies' procurement systems or that this code identifier has been applied as a catch-all for medical and health-related services broadly rather than reserved for its intended narrow scope. Issuers include county health systems (Santa Clara, Collier County), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), city retirement offices (Phoenix), city human resources departments (Long Beach), county juvenile justice authorities (Harris County), and regional health authorities. Geographic activity spans California, Florida, Arizona, Texas, and Washington, with no geographic concentration. Recent opportunities show response dates between September 25, 2026 and October 20, 2026, and this code exhibits no recent procurement activity aligned with its stated medical procedure scope.
