UNSPSC 85571443: Drainage of right middle lobe bronchus, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right middle 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 0B957ZZ

UNSPSC 85571443 Drainage of right middle lobe bronchus, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code showing no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six most recent opportunities tagged under this code—spanning Phoenix retirement pension services, Long Beach employee health benefits, Washington State ferry occupational medical surveillance, Harris County juvenile detention healthcare, Collier County pharmacy benefit management, and Santa Clara County temporary health professional staffing—fall outside the scope of the specific clinical procedure the code nominally describes. State and local procurement does not solicit drainage of specific lung lobes as a line-item service; these opportunities instead reflect purchasing patterns in occupational health surveillance, employee health benefit administration, youth detention medical services, pharmacy management, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which align with the procedure-level taxonomy the code implies.

The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the actual work being bought suggests either systematic misclassification in state and local procurement systems or that this code is not actively used for state and local purchasing. No representative opportunity in the recent block describes the drainage procedure, and no geographic concentration, issuing-body pattern, or repeat procurement cycle is discernible from the records. Firms pursuing state and local health-care procurement should verify the UNSPSC classification in any published opportunity before relying on this code as a routing signal.
