UNSPSC 85751517: Removal of synthetic substitute from penis, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from penis, 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 0VPS7JZ

UNSPSC 85751517 Removal of synthetic substitute from penis, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code whose abstract medical procedure name does not align with the state and local procurement activity currently being posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged with this code cover occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record review and independent medical examinations for pension benefit determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefit management for municipal employees, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and surgical benefit plan administration—none of which relate to the urological procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either a data-classification error in the state and local procurement systems or a systematic misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how issuing bodies are tagging healthcare and benefits administration work.

State and local buyers pursuing opportunities under this code include county governments, municipal human resources and retirement offices, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation departments, and county health systems across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance of ferry workers; the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) for temporary ancillary health professional staffing; and the City of Long Beach's RFP (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) for surgical procedure carve-out benefits management. Given the classification mismatch, the code does not represent a coherent purchasing category and should be cross-referenced with state and local procurement teams to determine whether opportunities are being tagged correctly.
