This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of infusion device from tracheobronchial tree, open approach.

UNSPSC 85571844, Removal of infusion device from tracheobronchial tree, open approach, is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure. Recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not reflect procurement of this procedure or related surgical services. Instead, the tagged opportunities span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical procedure carve-out benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, pharmacy benefit administration, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which align with tracheobronchial tree intervention or infusion device removal. The code appears to have been misapplied to health services procurement opportunities that fall outside its intended scope. State and local buyers posting under this code are city retirement boards, county health systems, state transportation departments, and county human resources divisions; however, the actual work being solicited bears no relationship to the procedure the code nominally describes.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County). No representative opportunities directly match the code's surgical procedure scope. The mismatch between code assignment and actual solicitation content suggests either data classification error or that this Commodity code does not see meaningful state and local procurement activity aligned with its formal definition. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for state and local purposes and verify code classification before pursuing any opportunities tagged under it.
