UNSPSC 85593216: Restriction of stomach with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of stomach with intraluminal device, percutaneous 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 0DV63DZ

UNSPSC 85593216 Restriction of stomach with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with minimal alignment to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure — gastric restriction via intraluminal device placed percutaneously — but recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code do not reflect procurement of that service or related medical devices. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical carve-out benefit programs for health plans, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these solicitations involve gastric restriction devices or the procedure itself.

The geographic spread of posted opportunities includes Arizona (Phoenix Retirement Office), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington (State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). The issuing bodies represent city retirement systems, county governments, county health systems, and state transportation departments. Given the complete mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited, this code does not support a reliable signal for business development targeting state and local procurement of gastric restriction devices or related interventional medical services. Firms pursuing gastrointestinal device sales to state and local healthcare systems should verify the accurate UNSPSC classification before building a pursuit strategy.
