UNSPSC 85571241: Occlusion of right middle lobe bronchus, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right middle lobe 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 0BL58ZZ

UNSPSC 85571241 Occlusion of right middle lobe bronchus via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that describes a specific medical procedure, but the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code does not reflect endoscopic bronchial interventions. The opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out programs, and health professional staffing — none of which involve bronchial occlusion or endoscopy. The mismatch between the code's medical nomenclature and the actual scope of work being procured suggests either a categorization error in the tagging system or that this code is not currently aligned with the work state and local governments are actively buying under it.

The recent opportunities span multiple jurisdictions and issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. The Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) seeks board-certified occupational physicians to conduct baseline, periodic, and exit examinations across 14 Washington locations for shipyard and vessel crew personnel. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) solicits independent medical evaluation services including disability medical record review and coordination of physician examinations for approximately 75 annual public safety pension applications, with a five-year term worth $750,000. The City of Long Beach RFP (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) requests a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program offering Centers of Excellence for knee, hip, spine, heart, and oncology procedures for approximately 3,800 employees and retirees. None of these opportunities align with the bronchial occlusion procedure named in the code. Given the disconnect between the code definition and actual procurement activity, this code shows little relevant recent activity for state and local buyers seeking endoscopic bronchial interventions.
