UNSPSC 85731800: Lower urinary system-bladder urethra, percutaneous endoscopic 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 percutaneous endoscopic 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 85731800 Lower urinary system–bladder urethra, percutaneous endoscopic approach–part A is a Class code that shows little relevant recent activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not match its nominal scope of urological procedures. Instead, the solicitations posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty and emergency services for detained youth, and a retirement office request for disability medical record preparation. None of these opportunities involve lower urinary system treatment or percutaneous endoscopic procedures. The mismatch suggests either a misclassification by issuing bodies or inconsistent application of the UNSPSC taxonomy by procurement offices tagging these medical-service opportunities.

The issuing bodies in the recent block include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), city governments (Phoenix, Long Beach), and a county health system. The geographic spread covers Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. No recent opportunities specifically solicit urological procedures or related medical devices or supplies under this code.
