UNSPSC 85573311: Repair right lower lung lobe, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair right lower lung lobe, 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 0BQF0ZZ

UNSPSC 85573311 Repair right lower lung lobe, open approach (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code — inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction — represent administrative healthcare contracting, workforce support, and care-delivery services unrelated to thoracic surgery or any specific surgical repair. The mismatch suggests either a data-classification error in the underlying procurement databases or a systematic miscoding issue within the issuing jurisdictions.

The five most recent postings span four states (Georgia, Florida, and California) across county governments and municipal departments. The Columbus Consolidated Government (Muscogee County Prison, Georgia) posted an RFP due May 15, 2026, for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services covering 576 offenders; Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) posted an RFP due April 9, 2026, for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spend of approximately $8.7 million; Monroe County, Florida posted an RFP due April 16, 2026, for virtual primary and urgent care services for 2,300 county members; San Mateo County Health, Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (California) posted an RFP due July 2, 2025, for peer support services for peer workers ($580,000 total funding); and the Santa Monica Fire Department (California) posted an RFP due October 16, 2025, for a fire department medical director. Because the code's declared scope bears no meaningful relationship to the services actually being solicited, this code should be treated as inactive for business development purposes pending clarification from the issuing bodies or reclassification within the procurement system.
