UNSPSC 85592200: Duodenal portion small intestine, open approach

This class includes one or more of 25 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the structures of the upper digestive system, duodenal portion of small intestine with open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0D.

UNSPSC 85592200 Duodenal portion small intestine, open approach shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure; the recent opportunities posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve duodenal surgery or gastroenterological procedures. The mismatch between the code's stated scope and the work actually being solicited suggests either a classification error in the source data or that this code is not actively used by state and local jurisdictions for their actual healthcare purchasing.

The absence of duodenal-surgery-related opportunities does not indicate market weakness in healthcare services procurement itself—the opportunities listed demonstrate active state and local spending on medical services, pharmacy management, and virtual care across multiple jurisdictions including Georgia, Florida, and California. However, for a business development professional evaluating specific surgical procedure procurement under this UNSPSC code, the signal is clear: pursue opportunities elsewhere or verify with issuing bodies whether they are correctly coding surgical procedure contracts before allocating pursuit resources.
