UNSPSC 85593060: Occlusion of upper esophagus with extraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of upper esophagus with extraluminal device, 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 0DL10CZ

UNSPSC 85593060 Occlusion of upper esophagus with extraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code with little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure involving esophageal occlusion, but recent solicitations tagged under this code do not reflect procurement of that procedure or related medical devices. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty emergency healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which align with esophageal surgery or the implantation of extraluminal occlusion devices.

The issuing bodies include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and County of Santa Clara Health System (California). The recent opportunities span multiple states (Arizona, California, Texas, Florida, Washington) with no clear geographic concentration. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) and the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). The mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either a data classification error or that this code is not an appropriate descriptor for current state and local procurement activity in these areas.
