UNSPSC 85731400: Lower urinary system-bladder urethra, open approach-part A

This class includes one or more of 24 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the lower urinary system-bladder and urethra, with open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0T.

UNSPSC 85731400 Lower urinary system-bladder urethra, open approach-part A is a Class code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's medical procedure taxonomy does not match the actual work being solicited in the state and local marketplace under this classification. Recent opportunities tagged to this code span comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employee health plans, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director contracts — none of which involve urological procedures or open surgical approaches to the bladder or urethra. The issuing bodies include county corrections departments, county commissioners' boards (via human resources and health divisions), county health authorities, and municipal fire departments, spanning Georgia, Florida, and California.

The four most recent opportunities show no concentration and suggest the code is being used as a catch-all medical-services classification rather than a specific procedure-focused taxonomy. Muscogee County Prison (Columbus Consolidated Government) posted RFP No. 26-0008 on April 15, 2026, due May 15, 2026, for inmate medical and pharmacy services covering approximately 576 offenders with current monthly costs of $95,537.71; Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted RFP 25-8414 on April 9, 2026 (due same day) for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual spending of approximately $8.7 million; Monroe County, Florida posted an RFP on March 14, 2026, due April 16, 2026, for virtual primary and urgent care services for 2,300 county members; and San Mateo County Health posted RFP No. 2025-007 on February 25, 2026, due July 2, 2025, for a peer support pilot project with $580,000 in total funding. The code does not reflect recent procurement intent in urology or surgical services and may warrant retagging by issuing jurisdictions.
