This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass stomach to duodenum, 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 0D160Z9

UNSPSC 85593165 Bypass stomach to duodenum, open approach is a Commodity code describing a specific surgical procedure, yet recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code does not reflect surgical services—instead, the opportunities show a substantial mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual purchasing. The source records show healthcare administration and management services: inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county correctional facility, pharmacy benefit management for a county employee health plan, virtual primary and urgent care platform services for county members, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director oversight. None of these represent gastric bypass surgery or any surgical intervention. The code appears to be a classification error in the state and local procurement systems that posted these opportunities.

The issuing bodies span multiple Florida and Georgia counties and special districts—Muscogee County (Georgia) through the Columbus Consolidated Government, Collier County (Florida), Monroe County (Florida), San Mateo County (California), and the Santa Monica Fire Department (California)—with healthcare administration and management being the common thread rather than surgical procedures. Representative recent solicitations include the Muscogee County Prison inmate medical and pharmacy services RFP (due May 15, 2026, current monthly cost $95,537.71), the Collier County Pharmacy Benefit Management RFP (due April 9, 2026, with historical spending approximately $8.7 million annually), and the Monroe County virtual primary and urgent care services RFP (due April 16, 2026). The code shows little to no relevant procurement activity aligned with its stated surgical scope; vendors and buyers should verify code assignment before pursuing or responding to opportunities tagged under 85593165.
