This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left ureter to colon, 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 0T170Z8

UNSPSC 85732906 Bypass left ureter to colon, open approach is a Commodity code nominally describing a surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not reflect surgical intervention work. Instead, the code shows activity around occupational and disability medical evaluation services, health benefit administration, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which align with urological surgery. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited comprehensive disability medical record summary preparation and independent medical examinations for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications under PSPRS (Arizona's Public Safety Personnel Retirement System); the Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance services including baseline and periodic medical examinations for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations; the County of Santa Clara Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories; and the City of Long Beach issued an RFP for a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program managing Centers of Excellence networks for knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures. Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for hospital and specialty medical providers to deliver emergency and inpatient services for detained youth. Issuing bodies span state departments, county governments, cities, and county health systems.

Activity concentrates in Arizona, Washington, California, and Texas, with Phoenix, Long Beach, Santa Clara County, and Harris County as recent issuers. The Phoenix Retirement Office RFP (RTMRFP26001) with proposals due October 16, 2026 seeks disability evaluation coordination for safety personnel; the WSDOT RFP (RFP20260825) with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026 requires board-certified occupational medicine physicians; and the Santa Clara Health System RFSQUATION (RFSQHHSFY270052) with proposals due October 7, 2026 establishes a non-exclusive multiple-award pool for temporary staffing across audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, orthopedic, respiratory care, sterile processing, and therapy services. The mismatch between the code's surgical-procedure name and the actual scope of recent opportunities — all occupational health, disability evaluation, health benefits administration, and clinical staffing — indicates this code either is applied inconsistently by issuing bodies or does not represent the work accurately.
