UNSPSC 85573644: Drainage of left lower lung lobe with drainage device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left lower lung lobe with drainage device, 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 0B9J30Z

UNSPSC 85573644 "Drainage of left lower lung lobe with drainage device, percutaneous approach" is a Commodity code that does not map to the state and local procurement activity currently solicited under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, occupational health medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing pools, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve thoracic drainage procedures or medical devices. The mismatch indicates either a tagging error in the underlying procurement system or that this highly specific clinical procedure code is being misapplied to broader healthcare administration and staffing services.

The issuing bodies using this code include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), multiple county systems (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), with no discernible repeat buyers under the code itself. Geographic activity appears scattered across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington with no concentration. The most recent substantive opportunity is the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825), due October 9, 2026, for baseline and periodic examinations at 14 ferry locations — but this procurement concerns occupational health screening, not the thoracic procedure the code nominally describes. Until the underlying procurement database reconciles the code assignment with actual scope, treat this code as low-signal for business development purposes.
