This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from bilateral lungs, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic.

UNSPSC 85572939 Extirpation of matter from bilateral lungs via natural or artificial opening endoscopic, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal medical-procedure scope. The six recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code do not reflect pulmonary endoscopic procedures; instead they span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, emergency and specialty services for detained youth, and specialty procedure centers of excellence. None of these scopes align with the code's defined taxonomy category. The mismatch suggests either tagging error at the source or a code assignment that does not reflect the actual procurement activity being conducted.

Activity appears concentrated among regional and local issuers—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (Washington), the City of Long Beach (California), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California)—across five states with no repeat buyers under the code's nominal scope. Recent notices include the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix disability medical evaluation RFP due October 16, 2026 with a $750,000 maximum over five years; and the City of Long Beach surgical benefit carve-out RFP due October 7, 2026 targeting Centers of Excellence networks. No opportunities soliciting actual pulmonary endoscopic procedures or related equipment appear in the recent posting record.
