This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of autologous tissue substitute from stomach, via natural or artificial opening. 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 0DP677Z

UNSPSC 85592453 Removal of autologous tissue substitute from stomach, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code whose title does not align with the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities on file show no solicitations for surgical tissue removal procedures; instead, they span independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical centers of excellence networks, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which fall within the code's stated scope of gastrointestinal surgical interventions. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or a gap between the UNSPSC taxonomy definition and how state and local procurement systems are actually applying it to health services contracting.

The issuing bodies posting under this code include county governments (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County), city procurement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), and state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries). Geographic activity appears concentrated in California, Arizona, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Given the scope mismatch, this code shows little relevant recent activity for firms focused on surgical or tissue-removal contracting. Business development professionals should verify coding with specific issuing jurisdictions before pursuing opportunities tagged here, or monitor whether the code sees recoding corrections in future solicitation cycles.
