This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from diaphragm, 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 0BPT4JZ

UNSPSC 85573747 Removal of synthetic substitute from diaphragm, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not involve the procurement of that procedure or related surgical services. Instead, the opportunities tagged with this code span disability medical evaluation services, Centers of Excellence surgical carve-outs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the code's stated scope of diaphragm procedure removals. The mismatch suggests either classification error at the point of solicitation or mission creep in how the code is being applied by issuing bodies.

The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies including state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Collier County Board of Commissioners, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Santa Clara County Health System), and municipal retirement systems (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), with no single repeat buyer appearing across multiple solicitations. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). Given the disconnect between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being bought, this code warrants careful verification before pursuit.
