UNSPSC 85592719: Dilation of lower esophagus, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of lower esophagus, 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 0D737ZZ

UNSPSC 85592719 Dilation of lower esophagus, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — a specific medical procedure — bears no meaningful relation to the state and local opportunities recently tagged under it. The recent solicitations span independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve esophageal procedures or endoscopy. This code shows little relevant recent activity; the tagging appears to reflect a data-classification misalignment rather than actual procurement in the procedure category the code names.

The issuing bodies in the source include municipal pension boards (City of Phoenix), cities (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), county human resources functions (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara County). No repeat buyers appear across the recent opportunities. Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas — scattered activity with no concentration. The most recent opportunity is the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP (WSDOT) due October 9, 2026, followed by the City of Phoenix disability medical evaluation RFP due October 16, 2026. Because the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited diverge fundamentally, no procurement activity under this code warrants pursuit on the basis of its stated definition.
