UNSPSC 85573404: Extirpation of matter from right diaphragm, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right diaphragm, 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 0BCR0ZZ

UNSPSC 85573404 Extirpation of matter from right diaphragm, open approach is a Commodity code that bears no meaningful relationship to the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent solicitations posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, surgical procedure carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve surgical extirpation or operative procedures on the diaphragm. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure; the actual work being solicited falls across preventive medicine, administrative healthcare services, and clinical staffing vendor qualification.

The mismatch indicates either a systematic tagging error in the state and local procurement data source or a complete absence of relevant activity under the intended code scope. No state or local government is currently soliciting diaphragm extirpation services, nor would such a narrowly defined surgical procedure code typically generate procurement volume at the state, county, or municipal level—these services are purchased by hospitals and health systems through capital equipment, surgical services, and physician-staffing channels, not through centralized procurement vehicles. Practitioners should treat this code as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and verify UNSPSC categorization through the issuing agency when encountering similar mismatches.
