UNSPSC 85594702: Repair ileum, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair ileum, 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 0DQB7ZZ

UNSPSC 85594702 Repair ileum, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code whose nominal title does not align with recent state and local solicitation activity. The code shows little relevant recent activity; of the six recent opportunities tagged under it, none involve surgical repair of ileal structures. Instead, the tagged opportunities span independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for government employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. These solicitations represent administrative and clinical support services ancillary to government benefits administration and workforce health, not the gastrointestinal surgical procedures the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies represent a mix of municipal retirement systems (City of Phoenix), large cities (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county government (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and county health systems (County of Santa Clara Health System). The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. The mismatch between code definition and recent procurement suggests the code may be misapplied in state and local databases or that the solicitation records provided are not representative of actual activity under this Commodity code. Firms pursuing opportunities in medical services, benefits administration, or health professional staffing should verify the UNSPSC tagging against current state and local procurement portals rather than rely on this code classification as a targeting mechanism.
