UNSPSC 85570000: Surgical interventions or procedures of the respiratory system

This family of surgical interventions or procedures is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS as code 0B Respiratory System

UNSPSC 85570000 Surgical interventions or procedures of the respiratory system is a Family code that spans occupational and disability medical evaluations, employee health benefits administration, and temporary clinical staffing—a scope substantially broader than the code name suggests. State and local solicitations under this code target medical record review and summarization for disability determinations, occupational health surveillance for public-sector workers, surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs for municipal employees, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and on-demand ancillary clinical staffing across multiple specialties. Issuing bodies include state departments of transportation, county health systems, county human resources and procurement offices, city retirement boards, and juvenile probation departments. The mix reflects healthcare administration across public-sector human resources, employee benefits, occupational safety, and correctional health functions rather than direct respiratory surgery procurement.
