UNSPSC 85571251: Occlusion of right main bronchus, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right main 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 0BL37ZZ

UNSPSC 85571251 Occlusion of right main bronchus, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific medical procedure — bronchial occlusion — yet the most recent opportunities tagged under it involve procurement of occupational medical surveillance services, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out networks, youth detention medical services, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these services involve bronchial occlusion or airway procedures. The mismatch suggests a classification error in how opportunities have been tagged against this code.

Across the six opportunities in the source, issuing bodies include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county procurement offices (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara), and cities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach). The geographic spread spans Washington, Texas, Arizona, California, and Florida. The most concrete recent opportunity is the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001), due October 16, 2026, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years to manage disability benefit applications for public safety personnel. The Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825), due October 9, 2026, seeks baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry system locations, with contract evaluation weighted 40 percent cost and 60 percent non-cost capability factors. Given the absence of meaningful alignment between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited, this code warrants a data-quality review rather than pursuit based on the opportunities shown.
