UNSPSC 85741979 Destruction of bilateral fallopian tubes, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that captures clinical procedure services and related administrative medical support functions tied to specific surgical interventions. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code do not center on the narrowly defined fallopian tube procedure; instead, they span disability medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, surgical procedure carve-outs through Centers of Excellence networks, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and what state and local buyers are actually posting under it suggests the code is either being used as a catch-all for clinical services outside its intended use or the opportunities are tagged incorrectly. The issuing bodies include county retirement offices (Phoenix), large municipal health plans (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile detention and probation departments (Harris County), county health systems (Santa Clara), and county benefits consortiums (Collier County). These buyers are typically managing employee benefits, occupational health and safety compliance, or custody healthcare.

The geographic spread spans Arizona (Phoenix Retirement Office), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Washington (WSDOT on behalf of Washington State Ferries), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). Recent representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and a proposal deadline of October 16, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry service locations, with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a two-year base term with options for five additional one-year extensions; and the County of Santa Clara Health System non-exclusive qualified vendor pool solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code shows recent activity but limited relevance to its stated surgical procedure definition, warranting clarification on how state and local procurement offices are applying this classification before pursuing work under it.
