UNSPSC 85571834 Removal of intraluminal device from trachea, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, disability medical evaluations for pension determinations, surgical procedure carve-outs for employee health plans, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involves removal of intraluminal devices from the trachea. The mismatch indicates that the code assignment in these postings is either administrative error or that the tagging system has categorized health services procurement under an overly narrow clinical procedure code rather than broader health services classifications.

The issuing bodies span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county systems (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), and municipalities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), reflecting health services procurement across multiple governance tiers. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations with a $750,000 maximum contract value over five years, proposals due October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence due October 7, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing in 13 ancillary clinical categories due October 7, 2026. The code shows activity but the systematic mismatch between the assigned code and the actual scope of work being procured suggests that interested vendors should verify code applicability before pursuing opportunities tagged to it.
