This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement bilateral inguinal region with synthetic substitute, 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 0YUA4JZ

UNSPSC 85781405 Supplement bilateral inguinal region with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure — inguinal hernia repair using mesh via minimally invasive endoscopic technique — yet the six recent opportunities posted under this code include independent medical evaluation services for pension boards, surgical benefit carve-out programs for city employees, occupational health surveillance for ferry workers, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve inguinal hernia repair, mesh implants, or surgical procedure coding and reimbursement. The mismatch suggests either persistent miscoding in the source system or application of the code as a catch-all for healthcare procurement unrelated to its stated scope.

The recent opportunities show broad state and local engagement with healthcare administration and staffing. Issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), city employee benefits programs (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), county benefits consortiums (Collier County), and regional health systems (Santa Clara County Health System). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical procedure Centers of Excellence networks (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFQ for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). No recent opportunity in the source materially relates to the code's stated surgical procedure scope, signaling that this code title does not reflect current state and local buying patterns or may be systematically misapplied by issuing agencies.
