UNSPSC 85571929: Occlusion of trachea with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of trachea with intraluminal device, 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 0BL10DZ

UNSPSC 85571929 Occlusion of trachea with intraluminal device, open approach, Commodity, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with the code's nominal medical procedure scope. The six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks, disability medical evaluation, youth detention healthcare, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve tracheal occlusion devices or open surgical approaches to airway management. The code appears to be a clinical procedure classifier that state and local procurement systems have tagged to health service solicitations with no direct connection to the specialized device or procedure the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies include county health systems, county boards of commissioners, city retirement offices, state departments of transportation, and county juvenile justice departments across California, Arizona, Washington, Florida, and Texas. The Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) are the most recent solicitations. With no recent opportunities actually procuring tracheal occlusion devices or the surgical procedures the code nominally covers, pursuit under this code is not strategically justified; the code mismatch indicates the taxonomy assignment reflects administrative error rather than actual procurement need.
