UNSPSC 85571051: Restriction of right lower lobe bronchus, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of right lower lobe bronchus, via natural or artificial opening. 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 0BV67ZZ

UNSPSC 85571051 Restriction of right lower lobe bronchus, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code with a nominal title reflecting a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code bears no operational relationship to the code's stated scope. The solicitations posted under this code do not involve pulmonary or bronchial procedures; instead, they encompass occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for public safety disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal health plans, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty medical services for youth in detention, and health plan administration. The mismatch indicates either a data-entry error in the state and local procurement system or a classification inconsistency at the source. No state or local government is actively soliciting for the procedure the code purports to describe.

The issuing bodies currently using this code designation include Arizona municipalities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California cities (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara Health System), Washington state agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas counties (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and Florida counties (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). The recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida with no geographic concentration. Because the code's nominal scope does not align with what is actually being bought, this Commodity code does not represent a coherent procurement stream for business development purposes.
