UNSPSC 85591539: Bypass lower esophagus to ileum with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass lower esophagus to ileum with synthetic substitute, 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 0D130JB

UNSPSC 85591539 Bypass lower esophagus to ileum with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it bear no relationship to that clinical scope. The six opportunities posted since July 2026 encompass independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, surgical benefit carve-out program administration, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve esophageal bypass surgery or the implantation of synthetic substitutes. The mismatch suggests a classification error in the tagging of these opportunities rather than genuine procurement activity under the code's stated scope.

The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and probation departments (Santa Clara Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County), and municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix). Recent activity is concentrated in California, Arizona, Washington, and Florida, with no apparent pattern of repeat buyers. The opportunities show a calendar spread from July through October 2026, with response deadlines concentrated in early to mid-October. Given the complete disconnect between the code's esophageal-bypass clinical content and the medical-administration, staffing, and benefits-management services actually being solicited, this code does not appear to be a reliable indicator of state and local procurement intent and should be treated as misclassified in the available data.
