UNSPSC 85573250: Resection of bilateral lungs, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of bilateral lungs, open approach. 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 0BTM0ZZ

UNSPSC 85573250 Resection of bilateral lungs, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with actual recent state and local procurement activity. The source contains no opportunities soliciting surgical procedures or surgical services under this code. The five most recent state and local opportunities tagged to this UNSPSC number address inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve surgical resection or bilateral lung procedures. The code designation appears to reflect a data-tagging mismatch rather than an active procurement category for state and local governments.

The discrepancy between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being bought suggests this UNSPSC assignment warrants verification. If your firm pursues healthcare services contracts with state agencies, counties, or municipalities, the underlying opportunities in the source (Muscogee County Prison inmate medical services, Collier County pharmacy benefit management, Monroe County virtual care, San Mateo County peer support, and Santa Monica Fire Department medical direction) represent current activity in healthcare administration and clinical oversight—but they are miscoded to a surgical procedure classification. Monitor whether this code continues to receive healthcare-administration opportunities or whether tagging practices shift; if it returns to its surgical scope or remains inactive for state and local procurement, it carries minimal opportunity value for non-surgical vendors.
