UNSPSC 85573424: Excision of lung lingula, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of lung lingula, 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 0BBH0ZZ

UNSPSC 85573424 "Excision of lung lingula, open approach" is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement opportunities in the source. The opportunities posted in early 2026—inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county detention facility, pharmacy benefit management for a county health plan, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services—involve healthcare administration, managed care contracting, and medical staffing rather than surgical procedures. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical intervention, yet state and local procurement records show no recent demand for this procedure as a standalone service offering or contract line item.

No substantive recent opportunities under this code exist in the source material. The mismatch between the code's clinical descriptor and the kinds of health-related services state and local governments actually procure through RFP suggests this Commodity code either sees minimal activity at the state and local level or is incorrectly applied to non-surgical healthcare contracts in practice. Business development activity under this code would be limited until clarity emerges on actual procurement demand.
