UNSPSC 85573570: Insertion of monitoring device into right lung, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of monitoring device into right lung, 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 0BHK32Z

UNSPSC 85573570 Insertion of monitoring device into right lung, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows limited alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific clinical procedure, yet the recent solicitations tagged under it do not reflect procurement for this service. Instead, the opportunities span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit management, pharmacy administration, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency/specialty care for detained youth — none of which involve insertion of monitoring devices into lungs. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and specialized health systems (Santa Clara Health System, HCJPD). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either misclassification by the issuing jurisdictions or fundamental divergence between the taxonomy label and purchasing practice.

Recent activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of Washington State Ferries, is soliciting proposals for occupational medical surveillance services with responses due October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference scheduled for August 31, 2026; the contract term is two years with optional renewal. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office, on behalf of the Phoenix Fire Pension Board and Phoenix Police Pension Board, issued RFP RTMRFP26001 seeking independent medical evaluation and disability record summary services with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and a response deadline of October 16, 2026. The City of Long Beach is requesting proposals for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence, with responses due October 7, 2026 and anticipated contract execution and go-live by April 1, 2027. Collier County issued an RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services covering approximately 7,200 members with historical annual spending of approximately $8.7 million, though the due date listed (April 9, 2026) predates the posting date. The code does not show meaningful recent activity directly aligned with its stated procedure-level scope.
