UNSPSC 85601147 Bypass cecum to rectum via natural or artificial opening synthetic substitute, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code across state and local jurisdictions include independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal health plans, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve gastrointestinal surgical procedures or synthetic bypass materials. The mismatch between the code's technical name and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscoding at the issuing-body level or a fundamental disconnect between UNSPSC taxonomy assignment and operational procurement practice in these jurisdictions.

State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal employee benefits divisions (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), county health systems (Santa Clara County), and county human resources or health consortiums (Collier County). The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas.

No opportunities in the recent block align with the code's stated scope of gastrointestinal surgical procedures.
