UNSPSC 85783020: Removal of radioactive element from left lower extremity, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of radioactive element from left lower extremity, 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 0YPB31Z

UNSPSC 85783020 Removal of radioactive element from left lower extremity, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity; the code's nominal clinical-procedure scope does not match the medical services and staffing opportunities posted under it in 2026.

The recent solicitations tagged to this code actually procure occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical care networks, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve radioactive material removal or percutaneous radiological procedures. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office sought independent medical evaluation services for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications from public safety retirees (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach requested surgical carve-out benefit management for Centers of Excellence networks covering knee, hip, spine, and oncology procedures (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of Washington State Ferries, posted a requirement for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations with examinations performed by board-certified occupational physicians (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories excluding nursing and physician services (RFSQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). A systematic review of procurement intent and medical service taxonomy suggests this code has been misapplied to the broader health services and staffing market rather than to specialized radioactive procedures. Bidders should verify code alignment with actual statement-of-work scope before investing in response preparation.
