UNSPSC 85601047 Occlusion of ileocecal valve, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code appears to describe a medical procedure or device intervention with clinical specificity that does not align with the solicitations posted under this taxonomy entry. Recent opportunities tagged to this code—including independent medical evaluation services (City of Phoenix), surgical procedure carve-out benefits (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), specialty emergency medical services for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System)—are health care administration, staffing, and benefit management services rather than procedural occlusion interventions. None of these solicitations reference ileocecal valve occlusion, catheter-based intervention, or related clinical supplies or equipment.

The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the nature of work actually being solicited suggests either a tagging error in the state and local procurement system or a code assignment practice that does not reflect actual commodity acquisition. State and local procurement offices do not appear to be actively buying under this code as named, and business development professionals should verify the accuracy of this taxonomy assignment before committing resources to pursue opportunities tagged to it.
