UNSPSC 85732923: Bypass left ureter to left ureter with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left ureter to left ureter 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 0T170J7

UNSPSC 85732923 Bypass left ureter to left ureter with synthetic substitute, open approach, is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific urological surgical procedure using a synthetic graft material. However, recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not reflect urological procedures; instead, issuing bodies are soliciting general medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgery networks, and temporary health professional staffing. The mismatch between the code's technical scope and actual procurement activity suggests this code classification is either incorrectly applied to these opportunities or has been repurposed in ways that diverge from its nominal definition. The issuing bodies include county human resources departments, city retirement offices, state transportation authorities, county health systems, and county juvenile probation departments — a mix spanning municipal, county, and state administrative functions.

Recent solicitations posted between July and September 2026 show activity in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) is seeking independent medical evaluation services for disability pension applications; the City of Long Beach (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026) is requesting surgical carve-out and Center of Excellence network management for its employee health plan; the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) is procuring occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations; the County of Santa Clara Health System (RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) is establishing a vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing including audiology, radiology, and surgical services; and Collier County (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026) is seeking pharmacy benefit management services. Given the disconnect between the code's surgical-procedure name and the actual work being bought — medical administration, staffing, and occupational health rather than urological surgery — this code appears to show little relevant recent activity for firms pursuing contract work aligned with its stated scope.
