UNSPSC 85543343: Occlusion of thorax lymphatic, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of thorax lymphatic, percutaneous endoscopic 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 07L74ZZ

UNSPSC 85543343 Occlusion of thorax lymphatic, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work actually being solicited under it by state and local governments. The recent opportunities tagged to this code include independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve thoracic lymphatic occlusion or endoscopic procedures. The code appears to be a clinical procedure taxonomy entry that has been misapplied to procurement solicitations spanning occupational health, disability administration, employee benefits, and healthcare network management. State and local buyers do acquire medical and healthcare-related services, but this particular code does not map to the actual commodities being purchased.

The recent opportunities span municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county benefits administration (Collier County), and regional health systems (County of Santa Clara), with activity concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026, and Santa Clara County Health System's solicitation for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. The mismatch between the code's clinical procedure name and the actual procurement activity suggests this code should not guide business development focus; vendors pursuing state and local healthcare, benefits, or occupational health work should rely on alternative UNSPSC classifications that accurately reflect administrative and clinical services procurement.
