UNSPSC 85594823 Excision of small intestine, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and actual recent state and local procurement activity. The code name references a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code do not involve surgical services matching that description; instead, they cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty surgical care coordination through Centers of Excellence networks. State and local buyers do not appear to be procuring small-intestine excision procedures themselves — public agencies typically do not perform surgery — and the code does not align with the medical administration and occupational health services that dominate the recent solicitation record under this tag.

The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance services RFP due October 9, 2026, covering baseline and periodic medical examinations for ferry workers at 14 locations statewide; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP (RTMRFP26001) due October 16, 2026, seeking medical record review and coordination of independent medical and psychiatric examinations for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications at $750,000 over five years; and the City of Long Beach's surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program RFP (HR26753) due October 7, 2026, targeting Centers of Excellence networks for knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures for employees and retirees. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal surgical procedure scope.
