UNSPSC 85594657: Supplement duodenum with synthetic substitute, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement duodenum with synthetic substitute, via natural or artificial opening. 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 0DU97JZ

UNSPSC 85594657 Supplement duodenum with synthetic substitute, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its clinical taxonomy name and actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code reflect diverse healthcare service contracting—inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve duodenum supplementation or gastrointestinal surgical supplies. The issuing bodies span county government (Muscogee County, Georgia; Collier County, Florida; Monroe County, Florida), county behavioral health departments (San Mateo County, California), and municipal fire services (Santa Monica, California). The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the breadth of health services being procured suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or that this code is being used as a catch-all for medical services procurement where more precise coding is unavailable or unused.

Activity appears concentrated in Florida and California, with Georgia represented by one recent RFP. Recent opportunities include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP 26-0008 for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services (due May 15, 2026, with current monthly cost of $95,537.71 and incumbent CorrectHealth Companies LLC expiring September 30, 2026); Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered dependents with historical pharmacy spend of approximately $8.7 million annually (due April 9, 2026); Monroe County's RFP 628 for virtual primary and urgent care services for 2,300 county members (due April 16, 2026, with contract effective October 1, 2026); San Mateo County's RFP 2025-007 for a peer support pilot project with $580,000 total funding (due July 2, 2025); and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP 455 for a medical director (due October 16, 2025). None of these solicitations involve the procedure or product named in the UNSPSC code itself, indicating that the code's use here is likely a data quality issue in source procurement systems rather than a reliable signal of what is actually being purchased under this taxonomy entry.
