UNSPSC 85573844: Excision of right diaphragm, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right 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 0BBR4ZZ

UNSPSC 85573844, Excision of right diaphragm, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of work being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code are for healthcare administration, pharmacy benefit management, virtual care services, peer support, and emergency medical direction — none of which involve surgical intervention or the procedure named in the code itself. This represents a fundamental mismatch between the code classification and the work being transacted.

The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code span Georgia, Florida, and California, issued by a county consolidated government finance office (Muscogee County, Georgia), county commissioners procurement divisions (Collier County and Monroe County, Florida), a county behavioral health services division (San Mateo County, California), and a municipal fire department (Santa Monica, California). The named solicitations include an RFP from Columbus Consolidated Government for inmate medical and pharmacy services at a 576-inmate facility (due May 15, 2026), an RFP from Collier County for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 members with historical annual spending near $8.7 million (due April 9, 2026), an RFP from Monroe County for virtual primary and urgent care services for 2,300 county members (due April 16, 2026), an RFP from San Mateo County for peer support services for peer workers under a Mental Health Services Act innovation project funded at $580,000 (due July 2, 2025), and an RFP from the Santa Monica Fire Department for an EMS medical director (due October 16, 2025). The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated clinical content, indicating either miscoding at the point of solicitation or significant drift between the taxonomy and the work state and local procurement offices are actually tagging under it.
