UNSPSC 85781327: Excision of left inguinal region, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left inguinal region, 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 0YB63ZZ

UNSPSC 85781327 Excision of left inguinal region, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually purchasing under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged with this code span independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical carve-out benefit programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve surgical excision of inguinal regions or the specific clinical procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the issuing jurisdiction's procurement systems or a classification error in the underlying data. State and local buyers appear to be using this code as a catch-all for medical services procurement rather than for the procedure-specific work the code was designed to represent.

The recent activity spans city and county health agencies across four states: Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Florida (Collier County), with a single information request from Harris County, Texas. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 (maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out management due October 7, 2026, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026, and the County of Santa Clara's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. The code shows no coherent procurement pattern and carries minimal relevance for vendors seeking to bid on state and local medical services; bidders should verify the intended code classification directly with issuing agencies before pursuing opportunities tagged under this number.
