UNSPSC 85732910: Bypass left ureter to ileocutaneous with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left ureter to ileocutaneous 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 0T170KC

UNSPSC 85732910 Bypass left ureter to ileocutaneous with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it show little alignment with surgical implant procurement or medical device supply. Instead, the opportunities reflect demand for occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluation, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and surgical care coordination services—none of which relate to urological surgical procedures or the implantation of nonautologous urinary diversion devices. The code appears to have been misapplied across these solicitations, and the Commodity itself does not reflect active state and local procurement for the specific procedure named.

No state and local government agencies are currently soliciting for bypass left ureter to ileocutaneous procedures or the surgical implants and supplies such procedures require. The opportunities posted under this code—including the City of Phoenix's request for independent medical evaluation services (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out program (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance services (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary clinical staffing pool (RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026)—are categorically unrelated to urological implant supply or procedural devices. A systematic classification error appears to have tagged health services and staffing across multiple jurisdictions to a surgical-procedure code. State and local buyers seeking urological surgical supplies, implants, or procedure-specific equipment should verify code assignment independently rather than relying on this code's recent opportunity history.
