UNSPSC 85572311 Drainage of right middle lobe bronchus, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose abstract name does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity posted under it. The recent opportunities in the source reflect health plan administration, occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and emergency/specialty care contracting — none of which involve the specific bronchial drainage procedure the code nominally describes. State and local governments do not appear to be soliciting this particular procedure under this code; the mismatch suggests either a data classification error or opportunistic tagging of health-services contracts to a medical-procedure code.

The geographic spread of the six recent opportunities spans Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington State (Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County), with issuing bodies including city retirement offices, city employee benefit programs, state transportation departments, county health systems, county juvenile justice departments, and county human resources divisions. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (75 annual disability benefit applications, responses due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services covering 14 ferry locations statewide (responses due October 9, 2026, pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, radiology, and surgical services (responses due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive multiple-award pool with no guaranteed volume). No active solicitation targets the code's stated procedure or clinical specialty.
