UNSPSC 85571115: Repair right main bronchus, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair right main bronchus, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic. 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 0BQ38ZZ

UNSPSC 85571115 Repair right main bronchus, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code show little alignment with bronchial repair work. Instead, the posted solicitations span independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefit program administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty emergency medical services for detained youth, and related healthcare administration. The code appears to be a misclassification vector in state and local procurement systems, or the opportunities are tagged at a higher taxonomy tier that does not accurately reflect the specific procedural work the code name implies. State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include county human services departments, municipal retirement boards, state transportation authorities, county health systems, and county commissioners' offices.

Recent posting activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit applications, due October 16, 2026, with a five-year contract maximum of $750,000. The Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFQ for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026. The City of Long Beach posted an RFP for surgical benefit program administration and Centers of Excellence network carve-outs, due October 7, 2026. Santa Clara County Health System posted an RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026, as a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualification vehicle with no guaranteed work. Given the divergence between the code's procedural name and the administrative and staffing services actually being solicited, this code shows no material recent activity in its stated specialty area and warrants close attention to whether tag misalignment is systematic or incidental.
