This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in mesentery, 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 0DWV0JZ

UNSPSC 85591902 Revision of synthetic substitute in mesentery, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it reflect no medical procedures of that nature. Instead, the code shows activity across occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, temporary clinical staffing, pharmacy benefit management, and emergency medical services for detained youth—a collection of healthcare administration and workforce management services bearing no structural relationship to mesentery repair or synthetic substitute surgery. The issuing bodies span state departments, county health systems, county human services agencies, and municipal retirement boards. Healthcare purchasers under this code are buying medical record review and summarization for disability determinations, occupational medical surveillance with physician-supervised baseline and periodic examinations, third-party administration of surgical care networks, temporary staffing pools for ancillary clinical roles, comprehensive pharmacy benefit management including claims processing and specialty drug coordination, and emergency and inpatient care for youth in detention. None of these activities maps to the code's stated surgical scope, signaling either a systematic data-entry misalignment in the procurement systems or a fundamental mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local agencies are tagging healthcare service contracts.

Recent solicitations reflect geographic diversity without clear geographic concentration. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona) posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services (response due October 16, 2026) with a five-year, $750,000 contract value; the City of Long Beach (California) issued an RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits (response due October 7, 2026) targeting Centers of Excellence networks; the Washington State Department of Transportation's Washington State Ferries (Washington) solicited occupational medical surveillance services (response due October 9, 2026) with a two-year term and up to five one-year extension options; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas) posted an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services (response due September 25, 2026); the County of Santa Clara Health System (California) established a multiple-award qualified-vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing (response due October 7, 2026); and Collier County, Florida issued an RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services (response due April 9, 2026, with approximately $8.7 million annual historical spend). The code shows little relevant procurement activity aligned with its stated surgical procedure scope and warrants verification against the actual commodity or service classification before pursuing opportunities tagged under it.
