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 0WPJ3JZ

UNSPSC 85765116 Removal of synthetic substitute from pelvic cavity, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure; however, the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code show little activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. The six most recent opportunities span independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which directly concern removal of synthetic pelvic implants or percutaneous procedures. The issuing bodies include a city retirement office (Phoenix), a city employee benefits program (Long Beach), a state transportation department (Washington), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), a county board of commissioners (Collier County), and a county health system (Santa Clara). This heterogeneous mix and the misalignment between the code's technical name and the actual work being solicited suggests either a data classification error in the state and local procurement system or that the code is not actively used for its stated purpose in this market.

The geographic spread includes Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington State, Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County), reflecting activity across multiple regions rather than concentration in a single jurisdiction. Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits (due October 7, 2026, with contract execution targeted for April 1, 2027), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026, two-year initial term with optional five-year extension). Given the disconnect between the code's definition and the opportunities presented, this code warrants verification with procurement offices before pursuit.
