UNSPSC 85572014: Drainage of right upper lobe bronchus with drainage device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right upper lobe bronchus with drainage 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 0B9400Z

UNSPSC 85572014 Drainage of right upper lobe bronchus with drainage device, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal clinical descriptor bears no meaningful relation to the state and local procurement activity currently posted under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit administration, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve pulmonary drainage procedures or surgical interventions. This classification mismatch suggests either a data error in how opportunities were assigned to the code or a systematic miscoding in the procurement taxonomy as applied by issuing bodies. State and local governments show little relevant recent activity under this code as described.

The issuing bodies posting under this code include municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation departments (Harris County), county health systems (Collier County, County of Santa Clara), and regional health authorities. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, response due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, response due October 9, 2026), and County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, response due October 7, 2026). Activity appears concentrated in Arizona, California, and Washington; the code shows no cohesive procurement signal and warrants close scrutiny of whether opportunities are being coded correctly before pursuit decisions are made.
