UNSPSC 85592449 Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from stomach, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, specialty surgical networks, youth detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve removal of tissue substitutes or gastrointestinal procedures. The code's nominal scope is a clinical procedure, but the posted solicitations show state and local procurement offices using this tag for administrative and programmatic health services, including benefit carve-outs, occupational medicine compliance, records management, and workforce staffing. This mismatch indicates either a cataloging error in the underlying procurement database or systematic misclassification of health-services procurement under a procedure-specific UNSPSC code.

The issuing bodies across these six opportunities span county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation). Geographic distribution includes Arizona, Florida, California, Washington, and Texas, with no single jurisdiction dominating. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFQ for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with pre-bid on August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). This code shows little genuine recent activity aligned with its stated medical procedure scope and warrants verification before resource allocation.
