UNSPSC 85601116 Drainage of ileocecal valve via natural or artificial opening drainage device, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code whose nominal name suggests clinical medical procedures, yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under it do not align with that scope. The code shows minimal relevant procurement activity; the opportunities posted under this designation span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent disability medical evaluations, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees and retirees—none of which involve ileocecal valve drainage procedures or endoscopic intervention. The mismatch between the code's clinical procedure name and the actual work being solicited indicates either a tagging error in the source data or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how these state and local buyers are categorizing health-related services.

The geographic spread of opportunities includes Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation occupational medical surveillance), Arizona (City of Phoenix disability medical evaluations), California (City of Long Beach surgical benefit management and Santa Clara County temporary health professional staffing), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation specialty medical services RFI), and Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management). Issuing bodies include a state transit authority, city retirement offices, city health departments, county health systems, and county human resources divisions. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Ferries' RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; and Santa Clara County Health System's RFSQHHSFY270052 for a qualified vendor pool of temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. Given the lack of alignment between the code designation and actual procurement scope, vendors should verify category assignment before pursuing opportunities labeled under this code.
