UNSPSC 85752242 Removal of synthetic substitute from vas deferens, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal medical procedure scope. The code's technical name references a specific surgical intervention, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code encompass occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit management, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which involve removal of synthetic vas deferens substitutes or related urological procedures. The mismatch between the code's procedure-specific definition and the actual work being solicited suggests either systematic miscoding at the source level or use of this code as a catch-all placeholder for medical services procurement outside its intended scope.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities span state departments, counties, and municipal health systems: the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational surveillance), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability evaluations), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit carve-outs), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (specialty medical services), Collier County (pharmacy benefits), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary clinical staffing). Geographic activity appears concentrated in California, Arizona, Texas, Florida, and Washington, with no concentration in any single jurisdiction. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) requiring board-certified occupational physicians across 14 ferry system locations, the City of Phoenix's independent medical evaluation RFP (due October 16, 2026) for disability benefit determinations at $750,000 over five years, and the County of Santa Clara's temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle (due October 7, 2026) establishing a non-exclusive vendor pool across thirteen ancillary clinical categories. Given the consistent miscoding pattern, this Commodity code warrants review for recategorization or consolidation with a higher-tier family code covering occupational health services or medical staffing.
