UNSPSC 85732821: Bypass bilateral ureters to colocutaneous with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass bilateral ureters to colocutaneous with synthetic 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 0T180J9

UNSPSC 85732821, Bypass bilateral ureters to colocutaneous with synthetic substitute, open approach (Commodity), does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually buying under this code. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, surgical procedure carve-outs for employee health plans, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which align with the specific urological surgical procedure named in the code. This mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error in the underlying procurement system or that the code is being misapplied to general healthcare services procurement rather than the specialized surgical intervention it nominally describes. State and local buyers are issuing RFPs and RFQs for healthcare administration, benefits contracting, and occupational medicine services; they are not soliciting urological bypass procedures as standalone procurements under this commodity code.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida, with no single jurisdiction dominating. The issuing bodies include city retirement systems (Phoenix), municipal employee benefits offices (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington), county probation and detention services (Harris County), county boards of commissioners (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara). Without genuine procurement activity aligned to the code's surgical scope, there is no meaningful market signal to assess for business development purposes.
