UNSPSC 85571938: Insertion of endobronchial valve into right middle lobe bronchus, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of endobronchial valve into right middle lobe 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 0BH50GZ

UNSPSC 85571938 Insertion of endobronchial valve into right middle lobe bronchus, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not reflect the specific surgical procedure the code nominates; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and pediatric detention healthcare services. None of these scopes involve insertion of endobronchial valves or the specialized thoracic procedure the code describes.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent opportunities suggests either classification error in the source data or that this code does not drive meaningful state and local procurement activity at present. The issuing bodies in the recent block—Washington State Department of Transportation, City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Collier County, County of Santa Clara Health System, and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department—are pursuing healthcare administration, occupational health services, and staffing solutions rather than acquisition of a defined surgical procedure or device. No evidence supports active procurement of endobronchial valve insertion services or related implantable devices under this code at the state or local level in the recent opportunities provided.
