UNSPSC 85573503: Revision of synthetic substitute in diaphragm, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in diaphragm, percutaneous 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 0BWT3JZ

UNSPSC 85573503 Revision of synthetic substitute in diaphragm, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefits, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve synthetic diaphragm revision or percutaneous surgical procedures. The code designation appears to be a medical taxonomy misapplication rather than a reflection of actual state and local purchasing patterns.

The mismatch between the code's surgical specificity and the breadth of administrative and occupational health services appearing in the recent opportunities suggests either systematic miscoding or a data quality issue in how state and local procurement offices have tagged these solicitations. Issuers include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Texas, Washington, and Florida, but the work being solicited—medical record review, occupational examinations, pharmacy administration, temporary staffing, and benefit carve-outs—does not support a strategy to pursue opportunities under this code as currently classified.
