UNSPSC 85572628: Extirpation of matter from left upper lobe bronchus, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from left upper lobe bronchus, 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 0BC84ZZ

UNSPSC 85572628 Extirpation of matter from left upper lobe bronchus, percutaneous endoscopic approach, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's narrow clinical scope — a specific surgical procedure performed by a physician — does not align with the actual work state and local governments are buying under this designation. Recent opportunities tagged to this code span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for transportation workers, emergency and inpatient hospital services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve the extirpation procedure the code nominally describes; instead, they reflect broader healthcare administration, occupational health compliance, and clinical staffing arrangements that state and local human resources, benefits, and operational departments actually manage through procurement.

The mismatch between the code's procedural specificity and the breadth of healthcare contracting captured under it suggests this Commodity code is not a reliable signal for procurement opportunity pursuit. State and local governments do not typically solicit individual surgical procedures through formal competitive procurement. The recent opportunities — from the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluations, RFP, October 16, 2026), City of Long Beach (surgical benefit networks, RFP, October 7, 2026), Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance, RFP, October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (specialty medical services, RFI, September 25, 2026), Collier County (pharmacy benefit management, RFP, April 9, 2026), and County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary clinical staffing, RFP, October 7, 2026) — reflect procurement activity across Arizona, California, Washington, and Texas. The code as currently assigned does not serve as a useful filter for pursuing healthcare or medical-administrative work at state and local levels.
