UNSPSC 85572314: Drainage of right upper lobe bronchus with drainage device, percutaneous 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, 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 0B9430Z

UNSPSC 85572314 Drainage of right upper lobe bronchus with drainage device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure code for percutaneous bronchial drainage—does not align with any of the recent opportunities posted in state and local procurement databases. The opportunities tagged under this code instead reflect broader healthcare administration, occupational health surveillance, specialty medical networks, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing services—none of which involve the targeted procedural intervention the code describes.

The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in how state and local jurisdictions have tagged these opportunities or a fundamental disconnect between UNSPSC medical procedure codes and how state and local buyers actually classify healthcare service contracts. State and local health systems, counties, and cities soliciting medical services typically tag opportunities at the family or administrative-service level rather than at procedure-specific commodity codes. Firms evaluating this code for business development purposes should treat it as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and focus instead on broader healthcare service and staffing family codes where recent activity is concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington.
