UNSPSC 85593027 Removal of infusion device from esophagus, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not involve infusion device removal or esophageal procedures; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and emergency medical services for detained youth. The code's clinical specificity—a single surgical procedure—does not reflect the diversity of health system procurement represented in the recent record.

The issuing bodies include state agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation, Washington State Ferries), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and municipal entities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), suggesting the code is being applied to administrative health services and staffing rather than surgical procedures. Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) for baseline and periodic medical examinations across 14 ferry system locations, Collier County's pharmacy benefit management RFP (due April 9, 2026 with approximately $8.7 million in historical annual spending), and Santa Clara County Health System's temporary health professional staffing qualification pool (due October 7, 2026) covering audiology, radiology, respiratory care, and surgical/OR services. The code exhibits mismatch between its procedural definition and how state and local procurement offices are actually applying it to broader health services contracting.
