UNSPSC 85732815: Bypass bilateral ureters to left ureter with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass bilateral ureters to left ureter with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach. 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 0T180K7

UNSPSC 85732815, titled "Bypass bilateral ureters to left ureter with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach," is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific urological surgical procedure. However, the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show little alignment with surgical procedure coding. Instead, the solicitations reflect medical services procurement — occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency/specialty care for detained youth. These opportunities span occupational medicine examinations, medical record summarization for pension disability determinations, pharmacy claims processing and formulary management, temporary clinical staffing across ancillary specialties, and hospital-based care coordination. The issuing bodies include state health and transportation departments, county health systems and probation authorities, municipal retirement offices, and regional medical authorities. The apparent mismatch between the code's title and the actual work being solicited suggests either a data classification error or significant scope drift in how this code is being applied across jurisdictions.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in the West and South, with recent opportunities from Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation, Washington State Ferries), Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, Santa Clara County Health System), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). The Washington State Ferries solicitation (RFP20260825) seeks occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with proposals due October 9, 2026; the Phoenix Retirement Office (RTMRFP26001) requests independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years, proposals due October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach (HR26753) is seeking a surgical benefit carve-out program for Centers of Excellence covering orthopedic, cardiac, oncology, and other specialty procedures, proposals due October 7, 2026; and the Collier County Board of County Commissioners (RFP 25-8414) is procuring pharmacy benefit management services with historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million and an initial three-year contract term effective January 1, 2026. Given the code's inconsistent application to non-surgical-procedure work, this UNSPSC category shows little reliable recent activity directly matching its nominal scope.
