UNSPSC 85572574: Occlusion of carina with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of carina with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0BL24CZ

UNSPSC 85572574 Occlusion of carina with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with actual state and local procurement activity. The recent solicitations tagged under this code span independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, occupational medical surveillance, surgical procedure carve-outs, and youth detention healthcare — none of which involve endoscopic carina occlusion devices or percutaneous procedures. The code's nominal scope (a specific interventional pulmonology procedure) does not match what state and local jurisdictions are buying under this classification.

No state and local opportunities soliciting medical devices, surgical instrumentation, or procedure-specific equipment under this code appear in the recent record. The mismatch between the code's clinical descriptor and the administrative healthcare services and staffing arrangements actually being procured suggests either a data classification error or a misuse of the taxonomy by the issuing jurisdictions. Vendors pursuing state and local contracts under this code should verify the actual scope of work in each solicitation before committing resources, as the code itself does not reliably predict the goods or services being requested.
