UNSPSC 85573609: Extirpation of matter from right lung, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from 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 0BCK3ZZ

UNSPSC 85573609 Extirpation of matter from right lung, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged to it encompass occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, disability benefit medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out networks, and youth detention medical services — none of which align with the code's procedural scope. The mismatch suggests that state and local procurement systems may be applying this code to general health services administration or benefits management rather than to specific surgical interventions.

The issuing bodies in the recent opportunities include city retirement offices (Phoenix), county commissioners (Collier), county health systems (Santa Clara), state transportation departments (Washington), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), and city employee-benefits offices (Long Beach), spanning Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering disability medical record summarization and physician-coordinated examinations for approximately 75 annual applications at up to $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (RFP 25-8414, historically $8.7 million annually). Given the absence of solicitations actually seeking lung surgical procedures and the prevalence of benefits-management and occupational-health work under this code number, the code shows minimal decision relevance for vendors focused on surgical service delivery.
