UNSPSC 85741844: Occlusion of bilateral fallopian tubes via natural or artificial opening intraluminal device, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of bilateral fallopian tubes via natural or artificial opening intraluminal device, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic. 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 0UL78DZ

UNSPSC 85741844, Occlusion of bilateral fallopian tubes via natural or artificial opening intraluminal device, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic, is a Commodity code with a substantial mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's technical description targets a specific surgical procedure for female reproductive sterilization, but the six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency/specialty medical services for detained youth—none of which align with fallopian tube occlusion procedures. The issuing bodies span a state transportation department (Washington), county health and benefits administrators (Santa Clara, Harris, Collier), city retirement and employee benefits offices (Phoenix, Long Beach), suggesting that the code may have been misapplied as a catch-all healthcare services classification rather than tagged to reflect the actual work.

Recent opportunities show activity in Arizona (Phoenix retirement medical evaluations; $750,000 maximum contract value over five years), California (Long Beach surgical carve-out; Santa Clara temporary health professional staffing; Collier County pharmacy benefit management with estimated historical spending of $8.7 million annually), Washington (state ferries occupational medical surveillance; two-year term with extension options), and Texas (Harris County juvenile detention medical services RFI). The representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award vendor-pool solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Code activity appears to reflect administrative misclassification rather than genuine procurement demand for the specified procedure.
