UNSPSC 85753139: Extirpation of matter from right epididymis, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right epididymis, open 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 0VCJ0ZZ

UNSPSC 85753139 Extirpation of matter from right epididymis, open approach is a Commodity code with minimal alignment between its nominal medical-procedure scope and the recent state and local contracting activity posted against it. The recent opportunities show no surgical procedure solicitations matching the code's clinical description; instead, the tagged records reflect procurement of occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out benefit administration, temporary clinical staffing, and emergency/specialty medical services for detained youth—none of which involve the epididymal procedure the code names. The mismatch reflects classification drift in how state and local procurement offices tag health-services opportunities; the code appears to serve as a broad catch-all for medical and health administrative contracting rather than a precise match to procedural services.

The issuing bodies span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and commissioners' offices (Collier County, Santa Clara County, Harris County), municipal governments (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), and regional pension boards. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no single jurisdiction or region dominating the recent activity. Representative opportunities include the Washington State Ferries' occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP for disability determinations (due October 16, 2026 at $750,000 over five years), the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit and Centers of Excellence carve-out RFP (due October 7, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle (due October 7, 2026). The recent activity suggests that state and local buyers are consolidating health-services procurement under this code without regard to its nominal surgical specificity, making it a weak signal for vendors pursuing actual epididymal or similar surgical-procedure work.
