UNSPSC 85692444: Excision of left rib, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left rib, 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 0PB24ZZ

UNSPSC 85692444 Excision of left rib, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this tag. The recent opportunities posted against this code span jail and county healthcare administration, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care delivery, peer support services, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve surgical procedures or the specific clinical intervention the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the state and local procurement systems tagging these opportunities or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how issuing bodies are applying it to healthcare and social services contracts.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Florida and Georgia county governments and special districts. The Muscogee County Prison (Columbus Consolidated Government) issued an RFP in April 2026 for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services with a May 15, 2026 due date; Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued an RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services (due April 9, 2026); Monroe County issued an RFP for Virtual Primary & Urgent Care Services (due April 16, 2026); and the Santa Monica Fire Department issued an RFP for a Fire Department Medical Director (due October 16, 2025). San Mateo County Health also posted an RFP for peer support services for peer workers. The code shows little meaningful recent activity aligned with its stated scope, and firms pursuing state and local contracts under this UNSPSC classification should verify the actual scope of work before preparing responses.
