This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from peritoneum, open approach.

UNSPSC 85591113 Removal of synthetic substitute from peritoneum, open approach is a Commodity code that nominal taxonomy assigns to a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show no alignment with that procedure. Instead, the code appears in solicitations for occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and youth detention healthcare — none of which involve peritoneal surgery. The mismatch between the code's stated scope and actual procurement activity suggests either systematic miscoding at the issuing level or that state and local procurement offices are using this code as a catch-all for health services beyond its nominal definition. State and local buying under this code is drawn from diverse issuing bodies: city retirement boards (Phoenix), municipal health systems and procurement offices (Long Beach, Santa Clara), state transportation departments (Washington), county boards (Harris County, Collier County), and independent school or special-purpose districts. No single issuing body dominates the recent activity.

Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 five-year maximum contract and an October 16, 2026 deadline; the City of Long Beach issued an RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits with a target go-live of April 1, 2027; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations with an October 9, 2026 deadline and a two-year base term; Collier County issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees with an April 9, 2026 deadline and a three-year initial term; and the County of Santa Clara Health System solicited temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories with an October 7, 2026 deadline. Because this code exhibits persistent misalignment with its defined scope, pursue only opportunities that match your service lines and do not rely on the code label alone to identify relevant work.
