UNSPSC 85573655: Destruction of left diaphragm, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left diaphragm, 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 0B5S3ZZ

UNSPSC 85573655 Destruction of left diaphragm, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities recovered for it. The nominal code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefits carve-out administration, pharmacy benefit management, youth detention medical services, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve percutaneous diaphragm destruction. The mismatch suggests either a systematic tagging error in the underlying procurement database or that state and local jurisdictions are using this code to classify diverse health services procurement outside its intended procedural scope. State and local issuers appear to be applying this Commodity code as a catch-all for medical services contracting rather than for any specific procedure-code work.

The recent activity shows a mix of issuing bodies — city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county health consortiums (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara County) — soliciting health services across emergency care, occupational health screening, pension medical evaluations, benefits administration, and staffing. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's RFSQHHSFY270052 qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no evident concentration. The code's actual use as a medical services miscellaneous category makes it unsuitable for business development targeting the procedural-code scope it nominally describes.
