UNSPSC 85591207: Removal of synthetic substitute from peritoneum, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from peritoneum, 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 0DPW3JZ

UNSPSC 85591207 Removal of synthetic substitute from peritoneum, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no alignment with the recent state and local procurement opportunities posted under it. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the solicitations issued under this designation encompass independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve peritoneal synthetic substitute removal. This is a clear mismatch between the code's technical scope and the work actually being procured.

The recent opportunities span diverse issuing bodies including a city retirement office (Phoenix), municipal procurement (Long Beach), a state department of transportation (Washington), a county juvenile justice agency (Harris County), a county health consortium (Collier County), and a county health system (Santa Clara). No pattern of repeat buyers or geographic concentration emerges from the six posted solicitations. Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington each appear once. Because the code does not reflect the substance of the work being solicited, this category merits low pursuit priority; vendors should verify correct code assignment with issuing bodies before investing in proposal preparation.
