UNSPSC 85753160: Drainage of right epididymis with drainage device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right epididymis with drainage device, 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 0V9J00Z

UNSPSC 85753160 Drainage of right epididymis with drainage device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not correspond to the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope describes a surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this classification encompass occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for youth in detention — none of which involve the specific procedure named in the code. This mismatch signals either a classification error at the source or a systematic misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how certain state and local procurement offices tag healthcare services.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities include a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county government human resources and procurement divisions (Collier County, Santa Clara County, Harris County), and city retirement and benefits offices (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), reflecting the fragmented purchasing structure typical of state and local healthcare administration. Geographic activity appears concentrated in California, Arizona, Florida, and Washington, with solicitations posted between late July and mid-September 2026. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) with a pre-bid conference, the City of Phoenix independent medical evaluation RFP for disability pension determinations (due October 16, 2026, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years), and the Santa Clara County Health System's temporary health professional staffing qualification pool (due October 7, 2026). Given the lack of alignment between the code's procedure-specific definition and the healthcare services and staffing work actually being transacted, this code appears unsuitable for tracking meaningful state and local procurement activity in these domains.
