This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left ovary, via natural or artificial opening. 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 0UB17ZZ

UNSPSC 85741213 Excision of left ovary, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that does not map to the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the opportunities posted under this classification cover occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical network carve-outs for employee health plans, temporary clinical staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve ovarian surgery or gynecological procedures. This mismatch suggests the code has been misapplied in the state and local procurement system, or the opportunities have been incorrectly tagged to it.

The recent opportunities reflect broader healthcare administration and employee benefit management rather than surgical services. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office is seeking independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations ($750,000 over five years); the City of Long Beach is building a surgical and specialty medical carve-out network for employee benefits (knee, hip, spine, oncology, and weight-loss procedures through Centers of Excellence); the Washington State Department of Transportation's Washington State Ferries is contracting for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminals; Collier County is procuring pharmacy benefit management services ($8.7 million annually in historical spend); and Santa Clara County Health System is establishing a temporary staffing pool for ancillary clinical roles including radiology, audiology, and surgical support. No state or local jurisdiction has posted an RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB under this code for gynecological or ovarian surgical services. Given the disconnect between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited, this code shows no actionable procurement activity for firms in surgical services or related medical specialties.
