UNSPSC 85594861: Destruction of duodenum, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of duodenum, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic. 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 0D598ZZ

UNSPSC 85594861 Destruction of duodenum, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code showing minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code's medical nomenclature—a specific surgical procedure taxonomy entry—does not correspond to the work state and local governments are actually buying under this classification. Recent opportunities tagged to this code involve independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-out management, pharmacy benefit administration, emergency and specialty care coordination for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which are endoscopic procedures or duodenal interventions. The issuing bodies are diverse: city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal workforce agencies (Long Beach, Washington State Ferries), county public health and human services departments (Harris County, Collier County), and regional health systems (Santa Clara County Health System).

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (response due October 16, 2026, $750,000 five-year maximum), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminals (response due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's nonexclusive qualified-vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (response due October 7, 2026). The code appears to be a data-classification mismatch within state and local procurement systems rather than an active category for the specific procedure its name denotes. Vendors should verify code assignment during proposal preparation and clarify scope with issuing bodies before responding.
