This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of endobronchial valve into right 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 0BH30GZ

UNSPSC 85571940, Insertion of endobronchial valve into right main bronchus, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this classification. Recent opportunities tagged to this code do not involve endobronchial valve insertion or any surgical procedure matching the code's stated description. Instead, issuing bodies are using this code to classify administrative medical services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and hospital-based emergency care — work that falls outside the code's procedural focus. The mismatch suggests either data-tagging inconsistency in the source system or that this code is being applied as a catch-all category for health services that lack more precise UNSPSC mapping.

The recent opportunities span state agencies, county governments, and health systems across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services (response due October 16, 2026) supporting disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel; the City of Long Beach posted an RFP for surgical procedure carve-out management through Centers of Excellence (response due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system employees across 14 locations (response due October 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (response due September 25, 2026); Collier County posted an RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management services covering approximately 2,400 employees (response due April 9, 2026); and Santa Clara County Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing across 13 clinical categories (response due October 7, 2026). Given the persistent divergence between the code's title and the work being solicited, firms should verify category placement directly with the issuing body before investing pursuit resources.
