UNSPSC 85592212: Bypass duodenum to transverse colon with autologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass duodenum to transverse colon with autologous 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 0D1987L

UNSPSC 85592212 Bypass duodenum to transverse colon with autologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic (Commodity) shows a significant mismatch between the code's nominal scope—a surgical procedure code—and actual state and local procurement activity under it. Recent opportunities tagged to this code do not involve gastrointestinal bypass surgery or any surgical procedures matching the code name. Instead, solicitations cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out benefit management for public employees, and healthcare services for detained youth. None of these services or products align with the specific surgical procedure the code nominally describes. This suggests either a tagging error in the underlying procurement system or use of this code as a catch-all placeholder for healthcare service categories that do not map cleanly to more precise UNSPSC codes.

The issuing bodies are diverse state and local healthcare and human resources entities: Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational health for ferries workers), City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluations), City of Long Beach (employee health benefits administration), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy management for employees), County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary clinical staffing), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical care for detained youth). Activity spans Washington, California, Florida, Arizona, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include Washington State Ferries' RFP 20260825 (occupational medical surveillance, proposals due October 9, 2026), City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RTMRFP26001 (independent medical evaluations for disability pension applicants, proposals due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), City of Long Beach HR26753 (surgical procedure carve-out benefit program, proposals due October 7, 2026), and Collier County 258414 (pharmacy benefit management, proposals due April 9, 2026, historical annual spend approximately $8.7 million). Given the absence of relevant activity, firms targeting actual surgical-procedure procurement would find this code unreliable for opportunity identification.
