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 0BUR0JZ

UNSPSC 85573246 Supplement right diaphragm with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code describing a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little to no direct relevance to the surgical scope it nominally covers. The five recent solicitations span inmate medical and pharmacy services (Columbus Consolidated Government), pharmacy benefit management administration (Collier County), virtual primary and urgent care delivery (Monroe County), peer support services for behavioral health workers (San Mateo County), and fire department emergency medical services direction (Santa Monica Fire Department). None of these opportunities involve orthopedic or surgical implant procurement, diaphragm repair, or the medical device supply chains typically associated with the code's taxonomy classification.

The mismatch between the code and the actual work being solicited suggests the code is either misapplied to health service contracts in the state and local procurement system or reflects a data-entry error in how opportunities were tagged. Geographic activity spans Florida (Collier County, Monroe County), Georgia (Columbus), California (San Mateo County, Santa Monica), and the issuing bodies include county health departments, county commissioners' boards, and municipal fire departments. No coherent procurement pattern emerges from these solicitations that would guide business development under the stated code. Firms pursuing state and local health service work should verify the correct UNSPSC codes for their service lines rather than rely on this particular classification.
