This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of jejunum, 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 0DBA7ZZ

UNSPSC 85594820 Excision of jejunum, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code whose nominal title does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually procuring under it. Recent solicitations tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, specialty medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which describe a surgical procedure. The code shows a systematic mismatch between its procedural title and the medical administrative and staffing services state and local buyers are actually sourcing. State and local issuers using this code include county health systems, county retirement boards, municipal retirement offices, county juvenile justice departments, county human resources divisions, and state transportation departments. The purchasing pattern suggests this code may be misapplied or serve as a catch-all classifier for healthcare services procurement.

Recent activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. The Washington State Department of Transportation requested proposals for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations, with a pre-bid conference held August 31, 2026 and proposals due October 9, 2026. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations on behalf of two pension boards, with proposals due October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years. The City of Long Beach requested proposals for surgical benefit carve-out programs serving approximately 3,800 enrolled employees and retirees, with a due date of October 7, 2026 and anticipated contract execution in April 2027. The County of Santa Clara Health System established a multiple-award qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories on October 7, 2026. Given the consistent mismatch between the code's stated scope and actual procurement activity, vendors should verify code assignments in source opportunities rather than assume alignment with the procedural definition.
