UNSPSC 85571958 Extirpation of matter from lingula bronchus, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal surgical scope. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code do not match the medical procedure it names; instead, they span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, disability retirement medical evaluations, surgical carve-out benefit programs, and juvenile detention healthcare services. These represent procurement of healthcare administrative services and staffing rather than surgical procedures themselves. State and local agencies do not appear to purchase surgical procedures through formal RFP, RFQ, or IFB processes at the commodity level; where healthcare services are solicited, they are typically framed as management or staffing contracts rather than discrete procedures.

The issuing bodies across the opportunities include a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County, Collier County, Harris County), municipal pension boards (City of Phoenix), and a city employee benefits office (City of Long Beach). Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals (proposals due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for disability medical record summary and examination coordination services (proposals due October 16, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing in thirteen ancillary clinical categories (proposals due October 7, 2026). Geographic concentration spans Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida. The code does not support a clear, actionable procurement signal for firms pursuing medical or surgical service contracting; treatment of this code as active procurement would likely yield pursuit of misaligned healthcare administration or staffing opportunities rather than surgical services.
