UNSPSC 85593907: Occlusion of duodenum, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of 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 0DL90ZZ

UNSPSC 85593907 Occlusion of duodenum, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities present in the source. The code nominally describes a medical procedure code for surgical intervention on the duodenum, yet the five recent opportunities posted under this code cover inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director services. None of these solicitations involve duodenal occlusion procedures or open surgical approaches. The mismatch indicates either a cataloging error in how the opportunities were tagged to the code or that the code has been assigned to cover a much broader scope of healthcare procurement than its nominal definition suggests.

The recent opportunities span Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government serving Muscogee County), California (San Mateo County), and California municipalities (Santa Monica Fire Department), demonstrating geographic diversity across county health systems, county commissioners' procurement divisions, and municipal fire departments. Without clarity on whether this code is intended to classify general healthcare services procurement, pharmacy services, behavioral health services, or correctional health services, state and local practitioners should verify code assignment with the issuing body before pursuit. The source provides no signal that UNSPSC 85593907 is an active or properly classified procurement code for state and local buyers.
