UNSPSC 85571824 Repair left main bronchus, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement opportunities currently tagged under it. The recent solicitations in this code—inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical director oversight—represent healthcare administration, employee benefits management, and clinical program direction, not surgical or procedural repair services matching the code's nominal scope.

State and local procurement activity under this code shows no relevant recent opportunities. The mismatch between the code's description and the nature of work actually being solicited suggests either a data-entry error in the tagging of these opportunities or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC classification and the purchasing bodies' practice. Counties, special districts, and health systems are the primary issuing bodies appearing in the recent record (Muscogee County, Georgia; Collier County, Florida; Monroe County, Florida; San Mateo County, California; and Santa Monica Fire Department, California), but their solicitations do not address surgical repair, procedural services, or bronchial interventions. Until opportunities properly coded to this Commodity are posted, this code should be treated as inactive for state and local procurement purposes.
