This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from bilateral lungs, 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 0BCM3ZZ

UNSPSC 85573607 Extirpation of matter from bilateral lungs, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that bears no meaningful relationship to the state and local procurement activity posted under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not involve pulmonary procedures or any surgical interventions on the lungs; instead, they span independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefits carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth. The mismatch between the code's clinical name and the actual work being solicited suggests either a systematic miscoding issue in the source system or that this Commodity code is being used as a catch-all placeholder for health services procurements that do not fit conventional medical-procedure taxonomy.

Issuers of recent opportunities under this code include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation), and municipal employee benefits programs (City of Long Beach). Recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026 with pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), the City of Long Beach RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System multiple-award pool for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Activity is dispersed across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington; no state or issuer shows repeated concentration under this code. Given the code's documented scope and the nature of opportunities actually being posted, firms pursuing state and local work in occupational health, medical staffing, pharmacy management, or employee benefits administration should treat this code as a data-quality signal rather than a reliable targeting vehicle.
