UNSPSC 85543106: Extirpation of matter from right axillary lymphatic, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right axillary 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 07C53ZZ

UNSPSC 85543106 Extirpation of matter from right axillary lymphatic, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity posted under it. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure on the axillary lymphatic system, yet the six recent opportunities posted under this code in August and September 2026 solicit medical evaluation services, surgical benefit administration, occupational health surveillance, youth detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve extirpation or axillary lymphatic intervention. This mismatch indicates either a cataloging error in the state and local procurement system or that the code has been applied as a catch-all for medical services outside its intended scope.

The recent activity shows no meaningful pattern aligned with the code's nominal definition. Issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal governments (Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile probation (Harris County), county governments (Collier County, Santa Clara County), and regional health systems. Geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations (due October 16, 2026), Long Beach's RFP for surgical Center of Excellence network administration (due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (due October 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's qualification solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code shows substantial recent procurement activity but little substantive connection to axillary lymphatic extirpation; prospective bidders should verify with issuing bodies whether this code genuinely reflects the work being solicited or whether a classification error has occurred.
