This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in right pleural cavity, open 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 0WW90JZ

UNSPSC 85761821 Revision of synthetic substitute in right pleural cavity, open approach (Commodity) shows a mismatch between its nominal medical procedure scope and the recent state and local opportunities tagged to it. The code does not capture the work actually being solicited under this classification.

The six recent opportunities posted under this code involve disability retirement medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out program management, occupational health surveillance, juvenile detention healthcare services, pharmacy benefit administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the specific surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal governments (Long Beach, Long Beach, Collier County), state agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara), county probation departments (Harris County), and county procurement offices (Collier County). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services with a response date of October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFSQHHSFY270052 for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories due October 7, 2026.

The misclassification suggests this Commodity code either was applied incorrectly by issuing bodies or the taxonomy classification has drifted from procurement practice. Vendors monitoring this code for opportunities should expect minimal relevant activity aligned with the code's stated surgical procedure scope.
