UNSPSC 85761840: Removal of other device from respiratory tract, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of other device from respiratory tract, 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 0WPQ0YZ

UNSPSC 85761840 (Removal of other device from respiratory tract, open approach) is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational and public-safety medical services, employee health benefits management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which represent surgical removal of respiratory-tract devices. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office seeks independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations; the City of Long Beach solicits surgical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence; the Washington State Department of Transportation contracts for occupational medical surveillance; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department requests emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; Collier County seeks pharmacy benefit management; and Santa Clara County Health System builds a vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing. The code appears misapplied to these opportunities, as none address procedural removal of foreign bodies or obstructions from the respiratory tract.

The issuing bodies are diverse — city retirement systems, municipal employee-benefits programs, state transportation departments, county juvenile-justice systems, and county health systems — across Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. No geographic concentration or repeat buyer pattern emerges from the sample. Given the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited, this code shows little relevant recent activity for firms pursuing state and local respiratory surgical services or device-removal procedures.
