UNSPSC 85593838: Supplement small intestine with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement small intestine with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0DU80KZ

UNSPSC 85593838 Supplement small intestine with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not align with that clinical scope. The sourced opportunities include independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for transportation workers, specialty and emergency medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve small intestine tissue supplementation or related surgical interventions. The code appears to be a misattribution or data-quality issue in state and local procurement systems; no recent opportunities directly related to the code's nominal scope are present in the source material.

The issuing bodies in the sourced opportunities span city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), county health systems (Collier County, County of Santa Clara), and regional health authorities. Given the mismatch between the code's surgical procedure designation and the actual opportunities tagged under it, this code does not represent a viable procurement category for business development targeting state and local government procurement. Bidders should verify the correct UNSPSC classification for any work they intend to pursue in these health services, benefits administration, or medical staffing categories rather than relying on this code's current data.
