UNSPSC 85593002: Replacement of anal sphincter with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of anal sphincter with synthetic substitute, open approach. 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 0DRR0JZ

UNSPSC 85593002 Replacement of anal sphincter with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical implant procedure — does not align with the state and local solicitations tagged to it. Recent postings under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and youth detention emergency care — none of which involve anal sphincter replacement or implant procurement. The mismatch suggests either erroneous code assignment in the procurement system or use of the code as a catch-all placeholder within a health services taxonomy where it does not belong.

The issuing bodies posting under this code include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and regional health systems, but no solicitation directly addresses implant devices, surgical supplies, or the procedure named in the code. Until state and local procurement offices align their tagging to the code's actual scope or begin soliciting anal sphincter replacement implants and related surgical services, the code presents no actionable activity for vendors supplying that product line.
