UNSPSC 85732822: Bypass bilateral ureters to colon with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass bilateral ureters to colon 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 0T180J8

UNSPSC 85732822 Bypass bilateral ureters to colon with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code representing a surgical procedure classification. The recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code do not align with its nominal scope—the code describes a specific urological surgical intervention, yet the solicitations being posted are for occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, disability medical evaluations, and surgical benefit carve-out programs. None of these procurements involve the procedural implant or surgical technique the code nominally describes. The code shows little relevant recent activity for the scope it purports to cover.

The opportunities appearing under this code reflect a broader health benefits and clinical services market across state departments, counties, and municipal health systems. The Washington State Department of Transportation posted a solicitation for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office sought independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations (due October 16, 2026); Collier County issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately $8.7 million in annual pharmacy spending (due April 9, 2026); Santa Clara County Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing across 13 clinical categories (due October 7, 2026); and the City of Long Beach requested proposals for a surgical procedure carve-out program through Centers of Excellence (due October 7, 2026). The mismatch between the code's procedural definition and the health services administration and staffing work actually being solicited suggests the code may be incorrectly tagged in the state and local procurement systems or that it serves as a placeholder for broader health services procurement activity. Business development professionals should verify code relevance directly against procurement notices rather than rely on this classification alone.
