UNSPSC 85761921: Insertion of radioactive element into right pleural cavity, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of radioactive element into 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 0WH901Z

UNSPSC 85761921 "Insertion of radioactive element into right pleural cavity, open approach" is a Commodity code with minimal relevance to current state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a highly specialized radiological procedure performed in an inpatient surgical setting, yet recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code do not align with that scope. Instead, the recent opportunities address occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure networks, and youth detention healthcare — none of which involve radioactive insertion procedures. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the procurement systems or that this code is not actively used to classify actual state and local medical services contracting.

No state and local opportunities currently under procurement reflect the clinical procedure named in the code. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System have all posted recent health-related solicitations, but none address radiological procedures. The code shows no active geographic concentration and no pattern of repeat buyers. This code does not merit pursuit in the state and local market at this time.
