UNSPSC 85573612 Extirpation of matter from left upper lung lobe, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code tagged to medical and health-service procurement opportunities, but recent state and local activity shows no direct alignment with the code's clinical-procedure nomenclature. Instead, the code appears in solicitations for occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services. None of these scopes involve lung surgery or percutaneous procedures. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), municipalities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), and health systems. State and local agencies are procuring administrative medical services, benefits management, staffing coordination, and general healthcare delivery rather than specialized surgical procedures.

Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office issued RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations, with proposals due October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach issued RFP HR26753 for surgical procedure carve-out benefit administration with proposals due October 7, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation issued RFP RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth with responses due September 25, 2026; Collier County issued RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees; and Santa Clara County Health System issued RFSQHHSFY270052 for temporary ancillary health professional staffing across audiology, cardiology, imaging, gastroenterology, ophthalmology, orthopedic, respiratory care, surgical operating room, and therapy services, with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code shows little substantive connection to its nominal scope and does not represent a coherent procurement category for state and local vendors.
