UNSPSC 85593067: Insertion of monitoring device into stomach, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of monitoring device into stomach, 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 0DH602Z

UNSPSC 85593067 Insertion of monitoring device into stomach, open approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure — does not align with the state and local opportunities currently tagged under it. Recent solicitations under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, and surgical benefit carve-out programs. None of these activities involve insertion of monitoring devices into the stomach or any gastric surgical procedure.

The mismatch suggests either a data-classification error in the procurement system or that state and local agencies are using the code to flag broad medical-services categories rather than the specific procedure the code nominally describes. The Washington State Department of Transportation (Washington State Ferries), City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, and Collier County Board of County Commissioners have all posted opportunities under this code in the past two months, but their actual work spans occupational health programs, employee benefits administration, and clinical staffing — not gastroenterology. Until the tagging or code interpretation clarifies, firms pursuing state and local medical-services opportunities should verify the actual scope of any RFP or RFQ tagged under this code rather than rely on the nominal code name.
