UNSPSC 85741939: Drainage of uterus, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of uterus, 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 0U997ZZ

UNSPSC 85741939 Drainage of uterus, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific gynecological medical procedure, yet the six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, surgical care-center-of-excellence networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these solicitations involve uterine drainage procedures or gynecological interventions. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by the issuing bodies or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy label and the health services actually being procured by state and local governments under this code.

No state and local procurement activity directly relevant to the code's stated scope is evident in the source material. The recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and County of Santa Clara Health System (California)—but they target staffing, network management, benefits administration, and medical surveillance rather than gynecological surgical procedures. Practitioners evaluating this code should verify whether their service offerings genuinely fall under UNSPSC 85741939 or whether reclassification to a more relevant code—such as health professional staffing, occupational medicine, or benefits administration—would better position their pursuits.
