UNSPSC 85573728: Resection of left upper lung lobe, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of left upper lung lobe, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0BTG4ZZ

UNSPSC 85573728 Resection of left upper lung lobe, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that maps poorly to actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under it reflect a broad spectrum of healthcare services procurement — inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve surgical resection procedures or represent a coherent procurement category. The mismatch suggests either systematic misclassification in the source data or that this code is not actively used by state and local purchasing offices for real procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope.

The geographic spread of opportunities posted under the code spans Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Muscogee County / Columbus Consolidated Government), California (San Mateo County), and California again (Santa Monica Fire Department), with no discernible concentration in any region. Issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners' human resources and procurement divisions, county correctional facilities, county behavioral health departments, and municipal fire departments. Representative recent opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP for inmate medical and pharmacy services for Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services (due April 9, 2026, with historical pharmacy spending of $8.7 million annually), and Monroe County's RFP for Virtual Primary and Urgent Care Services (due April 16, 2026). No coherent purchasing pattern emerges; this code shows little relevant recent activity for the scope of work it nominally describes.
