UNSPSC 85572322: Dilation of left lower lobe bronchus with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left lower lobe bronchus with intraluminal 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 0B7B3DZ

UNSPSC 85572322 Dilation of left lower lobe bronchus with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with actual state and local procurement activity reflected in recent solicitations. The code nominally describes a specific clinical procedure — a bronchial dilation intervention — yet recent opportunities tagged under this code reflect procurement of health services administration, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing, none of which involve the procedural service named in the code. The mismatch suggests either a coding error in the opportunities or use of the code as a catch-all placeholder for health services categories. State and local buyers issuing under this code include county health systems, municipal retirement offices, state transportation agencies, county juvenile detention authorities, county commissioners' offices, and county health care consortia. The kinds of work actually being solicited include independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, occupational health surveillance for transit workers, surgical carve-out benefit administration, pharmacy benefit management, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary ancillary clinical staffing. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington State, Florida, and Texas.

Representative recent opportunities show this pattern clearly. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office issued RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services to support disability benefit adjudication for fire and police pension boards, with proposals due October 16, 2026 and a five-year contract maximum of $750,000. The Washington State Department of Transportation issued RFP RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations, with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a two-year base term with options to extend five additional one-year terms, using cost-based scoring where price accounts for 40 percent and non-cost capability for 60 percent. Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members, with an initial three-year term and historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million. The County of Santa Clara Health System issued RFSQ RFSQHHSFY270052 for a non-exclusive, multiple-award qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary categories, with proposals due October 7, 2026 and no guaranteed work volume. The code shows no recent activity that directly involves bronchial dilation procedures.
