UNSPSC 85591467: Bypass upper esophagus to jejunum with nonautologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass upper esophagus to jejunum with nonautologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic. 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 0D118KA

UNSPSC 85591467 Bypass upper esophagus to jejunum with nonautologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code's title references a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code do not solicit surgical services or medical device implants; instead, they procure occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out networks, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. This mismatch indicates either tagging error by issuing bodies or a significant disconnect between the code's clinical definition and how state and local procurement offices currently classify health-related service purchases. No opportunities in the recent block solicit bypass grafts, surgical implants, or esophageal procedure services.

Across the six recent opportunities, issuing bodies include county health systems and county government departments (Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County Board of Commissioners, Harris County Juvenile Probation), municipal pension funds (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), city employee benefit programs (City of Long Beach), and a state transportation authority (Washington State Department of Transportation, Washington State Ferries). The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. Given the lack of code-specific procurement activity in surgical procedures or related medical devices, the code warrants monitoring for corrected tagging or updated posting patterns rather than active pursuit at this time.
