UNSPSC 85762358 Bypass right pleural cavity to left pleural cavity with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure. However, state and local procurement activity tagged under this code does not align with medical device procurement or surgical implant supply — instead, it reflects a broad range of occupational health services, employee benefit administration, and healthcare staffing for public sector employers and managed care programs. The recent solicitations show city retirement offices, county health systems, state departments, and municipalities procuring independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, occupational medical surveillance programs, pharmacy benefit management administration, surgical procedure carve-out programs for employee PPO plans, and temporary health professional staffing. The issuing bodies span municipal human resources and retirement divisions, county health systems and procurement offices, and state transportation agencies.

Geographic activity includes Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara Health System, Collier County in Florida, and Harris County, Texas), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation, Ferries Division), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and a proposal due date of October 16, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a two-year initial term with up to five optional one-year extensions; the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical procedure carve-out and Centers of Excellence benefits management with proposals due October 7, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories, with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code shows no alignment between its nominal medical device scope and actual procurement; vendors pursuing this code should verify category alignment with issuing bodies before bid preparation.
