UNSPSC 85572857: Removal of monitoring device from diaphragm, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of monitoring device from diaphragm, via natural or artificial opening. 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 0BPT72Z

UNSPSC 85572857 Removal of monitoring device from diaphragm, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that shows a substantial mismatch between its nominal scope and the state and local opportunities currently tagged to it. The recent solicitations posted under this code do not involve removal of monitoring devices; instead, they center on medical and health services procurement ranging from occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and surgical care coordination. The issuing bodies span state agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and specialized county departments (Harris County Juvenile Probation). None of the recent opportunities reflect the orthopedic or pulmonary procedural work the code's title suggests.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) supporting approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications for public safety retirees; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations statewide (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for a five-year qualified vendor pool of temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code appears to be receiving general health-services procurement tags from state and local offices rather than capturing procedure-specific or device-specific removals. Firms pursuing work under this code should verify scope alignment with individual RFPs, as the tagging does not reflect surgical intervention at the commodity level.
