UNSPSC 85572874: Removal of monitoring device from right lung, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of monitoring device from right lung, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic. 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 0BPK82Z

UNSPSC 85572874, Removal of monitoring device from right lung via natural or artificial opening endoscopic, is a Commodity code that shows no alignment with the state and local contract opportunities currently posted under this classification. The recent solicitations tagged to this code — including independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-out networks for city employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — concern administrative health benefit programs, occupational medicine, and clinical staffing placement rather than the specific surgical removal procedure named in the code. State and local procurement offices appear to be using this code for general healthcare service categories that do not map to the discrete procedural intervention the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities span multiple jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Activity is geographically dispersed across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no concentration in any single state. Because the recent opportunities do not reflect genuine procurement under the code's stated scope — removal of a monitoring device from the lung — this code does not present actionable activity for vendors offering thoracic or pulmonary surgical services.
