UNSPSC 85732150: Removal of extraluminal device from ureter, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of extraluminal device from ureter, via natural or artificial opening. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 0TP97CZ

UNSPSC 85732150 Removal of extraluminal device from ureter, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that does not map to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific urological surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted under this code between July and September 2026 span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, emergency medical services for youth in custody, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve urological device removal or match the code's clinical scope. This mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the state and local procurement taxonomy or a data-entry error in the opportunities' classification.

The apparent misclassification limits meaningful market characterization under the code's stated definition. If the code were accurately used, it would describe highly specialized urological procedure services for state and local health systems and custody facilities; the actual opportunities show activity across state departments (Washington State Ferries), county health systems (Santa Clara, Harris County, Collier County), municipal retirement boards (Phoenix), and municipal employee health plans (Long Beach), with no substantive connection to the code's nominal commodity. State and local procurement professionals should verify the intended UNSPSC coding before bidding on opportunities posted under this code, as the work being solicited does not align with urological device removal services.
