This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass upper esophagus to stomach with nonautologous tissue 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 0D110K6

UNSPSC 85591577, Bypass upper esophagus to stomach with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach, is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a surgical procedure classification used in medical coding systems, but the recent opportunities tagged under this code reflect a mismatch: the solicitations involve medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which constitute the specific surgical procedure named in the code. State and local governments do not solicit for or procure individual surgical procedures as a line item in contracting; instead, they purchase healthcare administration services, vendor networks, and staffing arrangements that may encompass such procedures within broader clinical scope.

The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to its nominal scope. The six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 span issuing bodies including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and County of Santa Clara Health System (California). None of these solicitations target the procedure itself; instead, they procure administrative and operational medical services—independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, specialty surgery carve-out networks for employee health plans, occupational health surveillance across ferry terminals, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 to 4,800 enrolled members, and qualified vendor pools for temporary ancillary health professionals. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, but the code assignment appears procedurally inconsistent with the state and local contracting market. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for state and local opportunity matching and verify the appropriate category if pursuing healthcare administration or clinical staffing work.
