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 0BQM3ZZ

UNSPSC 85573519 Repair bilateral lungs, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows a material mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's clinical specificity — describing a procedural intervention for bilateral lung repair via percutaneous access — does not align with the recent solicitations posted under this code. Over the past four months, state and local issuers have tagged opportunities for inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support programs for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services. None of these solicitations involve the specific surgical or interventional procedure the code nominally describes.

The recent opportunities span Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Muscogee County), California (San Mateo County), and California municipalities (Santa Monica), with issuers including county government procurement divisions, health and human services departments, and fire departments. The code shows little relevant recent activity for firms focused on the procedural scope UNSPSC 85573519 names. Procurement professionals evaluating this code should verify that state and local buyers are actually purchasing lung repair services under it, as the current evidence suggests the code assignment may reflect administrative miscategorization rather than genuine market demand for the intervention described.
