UNSPSC 85572966 Excision of lung lingula, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that does not reflect the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. Recent opportunities posted under this code center on occupational and disability medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical care coordination services — none of which involve lung surgery or pulmonary procedures. The mismatch suggests a classification error rather than genuine procurement demand for the specific surgical procedure named in the code.

State and local bodies issuing under this code include county boards of commissioners, municipal retirement offices, state transportation departments, county health systems, and juvenile justice authorities across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent medical evaluation services (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering disability medical record summarization and scheduling of comprehensive physician examinations for approximately 75 annual public safety pension applications; the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system employees across 14 locations statewide (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, and operating room services (RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026); and Collier County's request for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees with historical annual pharmacy spending near $8.7 million (RFP 25-8414, originally due April 9, 2026).
