UNSPSC 85572167: Removal of intraluminal device from tracheobronchial tree, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of intraluminal device from tracheobronchial tree, percutaneous 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 0BP03DZ

UNSPSC 85572167 Removal of intraluminal device from tracheobronchial tree, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's technical definition describes a specific bronchoscopic medical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect a broad range of occupational health, pension administration, pharmacy benefit management, emergency medical services, and temporary health professional staffing functions that bear no clinical relationship to intraluminal device removal. State and local procurement offices—including county health systems, municipal pension boards, state transportation departments, and county human services agencies—are using this code to tag health administration and staffing services rather than tracheobronchial interventions. The mismatch between code scope and actual procurement intent suggests either systematic miscoding or use of this commodity code as a catch-all for health-services procurement within jurisdictional classification systems.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) to manage disability medical record summaries and scheduling for approximately 75 annual public safety pension disability applications with a five-year contract value of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferries personnel across 14 locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, pre-bid August 31, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code sees no meaningful activity aligned to its stated clinical purpose; firms pursuing state and local work in occupational health administration, benefits consulting, or temporary clinical staffing should monitor this code's usage patterns for classification drift but should not expect procurements tied to bronchoscopic intervention technology.
