UNSPSC 85742940: Change pessary in vagina and cul-de-sac, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to change pessary in vagina and cul-de-sac, external approach. 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 0U2HXGZ

UNSPSC 85742940 "Change pessary in vagina and cul-de-sac, external approach" is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal clinical scope. The recent state and local opportunities posted under this code involve independent medical evaluations for public safety pension systems, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve pessary placement or gynecological procedure support. The code appears to be a misclassification artifact in state and local procurement systems, with no opportunities actually soliciting the gynecological medical device or procedural services the code nominally describes.

The mismatch between code and opportunity scope across multiple issuing bodies — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System — suggests the code is either seldom used correctly in state and local procurement or has been systematically applied to health services and staffing work that falls outside its intended taxonomy tier. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for purposes of product or service pursuit in the state and local space and verify correct UNSPSC classification before allocating resources to opportunities tagged under it.
