UNSPSC 85594932: Bypass jejunum to cutaneous with nonautologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass jejunum to cutaneous with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0D1A8K4

UNSPSC 85594932, Bypass jejunum to cutaneous with nonautologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic, is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code bears no meaningful relationship to the code's clinical scope. The six most recent opportunities tagged to this code—posted between July and September 2026—solicit independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve the gastrointestinal surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the state and local procurement systems tagging these opportunities or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how issuing bodies are applying it in practice.

The issuing bodies represent a cross-section of state and local public-sector employers and agencies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (pension administration), the City of Long Beach (municipal employee benefits), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational health and safety), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (detention health services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (county employee benefits), and Santa Clara County Health System (hospital staffing). Geographically, the opportunities span Arizona, California, Washington State, Texas, and Florida, with no concentration pattern. Because the code shows no authentic recent activity aligned with its clinical definition, this code does not represent a viable procurement opportunity for vendors offering gastrointestinal surgical procedures or related medical devices and supplies.
