UNSPSC 85594015: Bypass ileum to cutaneous with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass ileum to cutaneous with synthetic 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 0D1B0J4

UNSPSC 85594015 Bypass ileum to cutaneous with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this classification. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure—a medical intervention involving synthetic material—but the five most recent opportunities tagged to it span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director services. None of these solicitations involve the procedure named in the code, and the mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the state and local procurement systems or an incorrect code assignment at the point of posting.

The recent activity does show a mix of issuing bodies pursuing healthcare contracting—a consolidated city government (Columbus), a county board of commissioners (Collier County, Florida), a county health department (Monroe County), a county behavioral health agency (San Mateo County), and a municipal fire department (Santa Monica)—but the diversity of services and the categorical disconnect between the code name and the actual work being solicited make this code a poor predictor of procurement activity or a meaningful category for business development targeting.
