This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from scrotum and tunica vaginalis, percutaneous 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 0VP83KZ

UNSPSC 85753240 Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from scrotum and tunica vaginalis, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose abstract clinical descriptor bears no meaningful relationship to the state and local procurement activity currently posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, surgical procedure networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty medical services for detained youth, and independent medical evaluation services for pension board determinations. None of these activities involve urological tissue removal procedures. The code shows a fundamental mismatch between its clinical nomenclature and the health-system administrative and employee-benefit services that state and local issuing bodies are actually procuring under this tag.

The geographic and issuing-body mix reflects general health-sector procurement across multiple jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (Washington), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). The representative solicitations include the Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards requesting independent medical evaluation services (RFP, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Ferries procuring occupational medical surveillance (RFP, due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach seeking surgical benefit carve-out management (RFP, due October 7, 2026), and Santa Clara County establishing a temporary health professional staffing vendor pool (due October 7, 2026). The code assignment appears to reflect a categorical mis-tagging rather than genuine procurement alignment, and bidders should verify code applicability before investing pursuit resources.
