UNSPSC 85741924 Excision of cervix, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal medical procedure scope and the actual state and local procurement activity posted under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record summarization and independent medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing for ancillary clinical roles, and emergency/specialty hospital services for detained youth — none of which involve cervical excision procedures. The issuing bodies soliciting under these tagged opportunities represent a diverse mix including state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and independent retirement pension boards (Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards). This fragmentation suggests the code is being applied inconsistently across jurisdictions, or the tagging reflects administrative coding practices that do not correspond to the procedure named.

The recent opportunities show activity concentrated in the West and Southwest — Washington State, California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Arizona (Phoenix), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County) — though the work itself involves medical administration, benefit design, and occupational health services rather than surgical procedures. The Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP (due October 16, 2026) represent the most substantial recent postings. Given the mismatch between the code's stated procedure and the posted opportunities, firms evaluating this code should verify issuing-body taxonomy assignments before pursuing; the code appears to reflect administrative categorization rather than actual surgical procedure procurement at the state and local level.
