This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of stimulator lead from bladder, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic.

UNSPSC 85731149 Removal of stimulator lead from bladder, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code. Recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show minimal to no alignment with its nominal medical device scope. The six most recent opportunities tagged to this code cover independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out management for a city employee health plan, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty hospital services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. None involve bladder stimulator lead removal or comparable urological device placement or extraction. The issuing bodies span a municipal pension board (City of Phoenix), two large cities (Long Beach, Seattle via WSDOT), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), a county board of commissioners (Collier County), and a regional health system (Santa Clara County Health System). The geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington.

The code appears to have been misapplied to opportunities that address broader healthcare administration, occupational health screening, and clinical staffing rather than urological medical devices or procedures. The only opportunity with direct medical service content—the Washington State Ferries occupational surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026—involves physician-supervised baseline and periodic examinations for shipyard and vessel crew across 14 Washington locations, not device-related work. A business development professional should verify that this code is the appropriate UNSPSC category for the work being pursued; if the focus is healthcare staffing, benefits administration, or occupational health services, a different code family may better reflect state and local procurement patterns and improve targeting accuracy.
