UNSPSC 85762034: Removal of other device from respiratory tract, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of other device from respiratory tract, percutaneous 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 0WPQ3YZ

UNSPSC 85762034 Removal of other device from respiratory tract, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local procurement activity documented in recent opportunities. The code nominally describes a specific medical procedure — percutaneous removal of foreign objects or devices from the respiratory tract — yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code are unrelated to this clinical intervention. Instead, they span disability medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out administration, occupational health surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these scopes involve percutaneous respiratory procedures, and the mismatch suggests either a coding error in the state and local systems or a fundamental misalignment between the taxonomy designation and actual procurement intent.

The recent opportunities come from Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), spanning city retirement boards, municipal benefits offices, state transportation agencies, county human resources divisions, and county health systems. Given the absence of solicitations that actually match the code's clinical scope, this code shows no relevant recent activity for medical device removal or respiratory procedures at the state and local level. Business development professionals should treat this as a low-signal category and verify coding accuracy before committing pursuit resources.
