UNSPSC 85732148, Removal of synthetic substitute from ureter via natural or artificial opening, is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged under this code — including independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out programs (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System) — are administrative and clinical support services rather than urological procedures or ureter-related medical devices or supplies. None of these solicitations involve removal of synthetic urinary tract substitutes, catheter materials, stent extraction, or related clinical interventions that would logically fall within this code's scope.

The mismatch between the code's nominal medical procedure classification and the actual work being purchased suggests either a tagging error in the source data or a fundamental misalignment between this Commodity code's intended use and current state and local procurement practice. No further analysis of issuing bodies, geographic spread, or representative opportunities is warranted given the lack of substantive activity under the code's actual scope.
