UNSPSC 85592216 Bypass stomach to transverse colon, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal medical-procedure scope does not align with the state and local procurement activity recorded under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code show no instances of government bodies procuring surgical gastric-bypass procedures or related surgical services. Instead, the opportunities reflect healthcare administration and management services — inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and medical direction for emergency services. The code shows little relevant recent activity for the surgical procedure it nominally describes.

State and local governments have posted opportunities under this code across multiple jurisdictions and issuing-body types, including county corrections departments (Muscogee County, Georgia), county benefits and human resources divisions (Collier County, Florida), county health boards (Monroe County, Florida; San Mateo County, California), and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica, California). Geographic spread spans Florida, Georgia, and California in the most recent postings. Representative opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison, due May 15, 2026, with an estimated current monthly cost of $95,537.71; Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members, with historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million; and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members, with proposals due April 16, 2026. The consistent mismatch between the code's surgical-procedure name and the healthcare administration services actually being procured suggests a tagging error in one or more source systems rather than genuine demand for the procedure described.
