UNSPSC 85761501: Revision of radioactive element in retroperitoneum, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of radioactive element in retroperitoneum, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0WWH41Z

UNSPSC 85761501, Revision of radioactive element in retroperitoneum, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to recent state and local procurement activity. The code's clinical scope—a specific invasive medical procedure involving radioactive material removal—does not align with the opportunities currently posted under this classification. State and local bodies are instead using this code label to solicit medical services that fall well outside its nominal scope, including disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational health surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing.

The recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies—city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health systems (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Harris County), and county benefits administration (Collier County)—but none directly procure the invasive retroperitoneal procedure the code names. The geographic distribution includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no concentration in any single state. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The mismatch between code definition and actual procurement suggests this code is misapplied in state and local systems and does not represent a viable business development avenue for vendors in this specialty.
