This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right middle lobe bronchus with autologous tissue substitute, open approach.

UNSPSC 85571764 Supplement right middle lobe bronchus with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it do not reflect that scope. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out program administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve bronchial supplementation or autologous tissue grafting. The mismatch suggests either a data-classification error in the state and local procurement systems or a misapplication of the UNSPSC taxonomy to healthcare service contracts that fall outside the code's intended scope.

The issuing bodies posting opportunities tagged under this code include a state department of transportation (Washington State Department of Transportation), county government procurement offices (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), a city retirement office (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), and a city personnel department (City of Long Beach). Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services to support disability benefit determinations, with proposals due October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; and the City of Long Beach's RFP for a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program for approximately 3,800 enrolled employees and retirees, with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope.
