UNSPSC 85732154: Removal of drainage 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 drainage 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 0TP970Z

UNSPSC 85732154 Removal of drainage device from ureter, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged to it span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-outs for employee health plans, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve ureter drainage device removal. The mismatch suggests that state and local procurement systems have applied this clinical procedure code to opportunities involving broader medical services delivery and health plan administration, rather than to the discrete clinical intervention the code describes.

No state and local solicitations in the recent record actually purchase ureter drainage device removal services or related urology procedures. Buyers pursuing opportunities under this code should clarify whether the actual procurement need involves clinical urology services or whether the code assignment reflects a data-entry error in the issuing body's taxonomy mapping.
