UNSPSC 85571861: Reattachment of left main bronchus, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reattachment of left main bronchus, open approach. 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 0BM70ZZ

UNSPSC 85571861 Reattachment of left main bronchus, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it are healthcare administration and staffing services — independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve reattachment of a left main bronchus or surgical procedure delivery. The issuing bodies span a diverse mix of jurisdictions: municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation departments (Harris County), county commissioners (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara County). The misalignment between the code's surgical procedure title and the administrative and staffing services actually being solicited indicates either a systematic tagging error or that the code is being used as a placeholder for healthcare service categories more broadly.

Recent opportunities show geographic spread across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no dominant concentration. The City of Phoenix RFP 26001 seeks independent medical evaluation services and disability medical record summary preparation for public safety pension determinations, due October 16, 2026, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years. The City of Long Beach HR RFP seeks proposals for a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program with Centers of Excellence for employees and retirees enrolled in an Anthem PPO plan, with go-live targeted for April 1, 2027. The Washington State Department of Transportation RFP 20260825 seeks occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations, due October 9, 2026, with evaluation weighted 40 percent cost and 60 percent capability. The Santa Clara County Health System RFSQ seeks temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (Audiology, Cardiology, Diagnostic Imaging, Gastroenterology, Health Services Assistant, Medical Social Worker, Ophthalmology, Orthopedic, Patient Transporter, Respiratory Care, Sterile Processing, Surgical/OR/Labor and Delivery, and Therapy Services), due October 7, 2026, as a non-exclusive multiple-award qualified vendor pool with no guaranteed volume. The code shows activity but no meaningful alignment to surgical procedure delivery.
