UNSPSC 85571147, Removal of synthetic substitute from tracheobronchial tree via natural or artificial opening, is a Commodity code that state and local procurement records show tagged to medical and occupational health services procurement, though the recent solicitations indexed under this code do not reflect the code's literal clinical scope. The opportunities posted under this code span medical record review and summarization for disability determinations, occupational medical surveillance programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty surgical networks — none of which involve removal of synthetic substitutes from the tracheobronchial tree. This mismatch suggests the code is being applied to broader medical services categories or that indexing practices within state and local procurement systems do not align tightly with UNSPSC clinical taxonomy. State and local issuers across this code include city pension and retirement offices, state transportation agencies, county health systems, county boards of commissioners, and health consortia.
