UNSPSC 85733100: Upper urinary system-kidneys ureters, open approach-part G

This class includes one or more of 24 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the upper urinary system-kidneys and ureters, with open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0T.

UNSPSC 85733100 Upper urinary system-kidneys ureters, open approach-part G is a Class code that does not map to the actual scope of state and local procurement activity currently posted under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect comprehensive health services contracting—inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve surgical or procedural services related to upper urinary system treatment. The code appears to be a medical taxonomy classification that state and local procurement systems have misapplied to health care administration and services procurement; the recent solicitations reveal no requests for surgical supplies, medical devices, or clinical procedures under this code.

Activity across the sample is geographically dispersed—Columbus, Georgia (Muscogee County Prison); Collier County, Florida; Monroe County, Florida; San Mateo County, California; and Santa Monica, California. Issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners, county health authorities, county fire departments, and county behavioral health divisions. Without recent opportunities that actually reflect upper urinary system–related procurement, the code shows no decision-relevant activity for vendors in that specialty. A business development professional should treat this code as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and verify the correct UNSPSC classification for any health care services or supplies the firm is targeting.
