This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass stomach to jejunum with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0D1647A

UNSPSC 85593665 (Bypass stomach to jejunum with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach) is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little relevance to the code's nominal medical procedure specification. The solicitations spanning Phoenix, Long Beach, Washington State, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County are requesting independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which describe gastric bypass procedures or the specific surgical intervention the code names. This mismatch suggests the code may have been applied incorrectly to these opportunities or that the code taxonomy does not align with how state and local healthcare procurement is structured.

The issuing bodies represent a mix of municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal benefits departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county benefits and health departments (Collier County, Santa Clara County Health System), and public health systems. Recent activity is concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with opportunities clustered in late August through mid-October 2026. Representative solicitations include the Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), Long Beach's RFP for surgical Centers of Excellence carve-out benefits (due October 7, 2026, contract targeted for April 2027 go-live), and WSDOT's RFQ for occupational medical surveillance across 14 Washington ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026, two-year term with five-year extension options). Given the disconnect between the code name and the actual scope of solicited services, this code warrants investigation with procurement offices to confirm whether the medical procedure specification accurately reflects current buying activity or whether opportunities are being tagged with an incorrect taxonomy code.
