UNSPSC 85532650: Excision of hemorrhoidal plexus, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of hemorrhoidal plexus, open 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 06BY0ZC

UNSPSC 85532650 Excision of hemorrhoidal plexus, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with the surgical scope. The opportunities instead reflect solicitations for institutional healthcare management, pharmacy benefit administration, virtual primary care services, peer mental health support, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve hemorrhoidal surgery or the procedural medical services the code nominally identifies. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in how opportunities were tagged or that the code has been repurposed in practice to capture broader healthcare contracting activity beyond its stated commodity definition.

The issuing bodies span county government (Muscogee County, Georgia; Collier County, Florida; Monroe County, Florida; Santa Mateo County, California) and municipal government (Santa Monica Fire Department, California), with no school districts, transit authorities, or state departments represented in the recent block. Geographic activity appears concentrated in Florida and California, with one opportunity each in Georgia and California. Representative recent opportunities include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (RFP posted April 15, 2026, due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled county employees and 4,800 covered members (posted April 9, 2026, due April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members (posted March 14, 2026, due April 16, 2026). Because the code's nominal surgical scope and the actual work being procured diverge substantially, this code shows little relevant recent activity for vendors pursuing opportunities in hemorrhoidal or related colorectal surgical services.
