This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of lingula 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 0B990ZZ

UNSPSC 85572003 Drainage of lingula bronchus, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure performed on the lingula bronchus, but the recent opportunities tagged to it cover healthcare administration, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care, peer mental health support, and fire department medical direction — none of which involves drainage procedures or surgical intervention. The mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the actual work being procured suggests either systematic mis-tagging in state and local UNSPSC classification systems or that this code is not actively used to describe actual healthcare service procurement at the state and local level.

The five most recent opportunities span Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government), California (San Mateo County), and California (Santa Monica Fire Department), and reflect procurement by county health and human services departments, county procurement offices, and municipal fire departments rather than surgical services or procedural healthcare vendors. None of these solicitations — including RFP 26-0008 for Muscogee County Prison inmate medical and pharmacy services (due May 15, 2026), RFP 25-8414 for Collier County pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026), Monroe County's virtual primary and urgent care RFP (due April 16, 2026), San Mateo County's peer support pilot (due July 2, 2025), and Santa Monica Fire Department's medical director RFP (due October 16, 2025) — involve the surgical drainage procedures this code nominally represents.
