UNSPSC 85601046: Occlusion of ileocecal valve via natural or artificial opening intraluminal device, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of ileocecal valve via natural or artificial opening intraluminal device, 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 0DLC8DZ

UNSPSC 85601046 Occlusion of ileocecal valve via natural or artificial opening intraluminal device, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that carries a procedural medical device taxonomy label but does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this code. Recent opportunities tagged to this code span independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical center-of-excellence carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency youth detention medical services — none of which involve ileocecal valve occlusion devices or related interventional procedures. The mismatch indicates either systematic tagging error or that this code is used as a catchall within procurement systems for medically related services outside its nominal device scope. The solicitations span cities, counties, state transportation departments, and county health systems, with no single repeat buyer evident across the recent sample.

The geographic spread includes Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (state department), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), representing disparate regional activity. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office requesting independent medical evaluation services for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications with a $750,000 maximum over five years (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation soliciting occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System establishing a vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, imaging, and surgical services (RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows insufficient alignment with its nominal scope to support targeted pursuit; the recent opportunities suggest misclassification rather than coherent procurement activity.
