This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of radioactive element from vagina and cul-de-sac, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0UPH41Z

UNSPSC 85743236 Removal of radioactive element from vagina and cul-de-sac, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and state and local procurement activity. The code's abstract medical procedure description does not align with the recent opportunities posted under it. State and local governments are instead using this code to solicit occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, specialty medical procedure networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — work that spans occupational health compliance, benefits administration, and contingent clinical staffing rather than any specific surgical procedure.

The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health systems (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington), county probation departments (Harris County), county human resources divisions (Collier County), and large county health systems (Santa Clara). Recent solicitations span independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension determinations (Phoenix Retirement Office RFP due October 16, 2026), occupational medical surveillance for ferry system employees across 14 Washington locations (WSDOT RFP due October 9, 2026), surgical procedure carve-out benefits for city employee plans (Long Beach RFP due October 7, 2026), pharmacy benefit management serving approximately 2,400 county employees (Collier County RFP, with submission deadline April 9, 2026), and temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (Santa Clara Health System RFP due October 7, 2026). The code shows activity across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The taxonomic labeling here appears to be erroneous — the code should not be driving procurement interest in occupational health, benefits administration, or staffing services.
