UNSPSC 85741717: Revision of radioactive element in uterus and cervix, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of radioactive element in uterus and cervix, 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 0UWD71Z

UNSPSC 85741717 Revision of radioactive element in uterus and cervix, via natural or artificial opening (Commodity) shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal medical procedure scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record summarization, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-outs, and youth detention healthcare services—none of which involve revision of radioactive elements in gynecologic treatment. This is a clear mismatch between the code's clinical definition and what state and local jurisdictions are actually buying under it.

The six recent opportunities in the block span diverse issuing bodies—a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, Santa Clara County Health System), a city (Long Beach), and a municipal retirement office (City of Phoenix)—but none address the code's stated procedure or its clinical therapeutic category. No geographic concentration or representative procurement pattern emerges that would signal active buyer interest in the nominal commodity. A business development professional should treat this code as inactive for practical pursuit purposes and investigate whether it has been misapplied by procurement offices issuing opportunities, or whether the actual work occurs under different UNSPSC categories such as those covering medical and surgical services more broadly.
