This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass cecum to sigmoid colon via natural or artificial opening autologous 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 0D1H87N

UNSPSC 85601155, Bypass cecum to sigmoid colon via natural or artificial opening autologous tissue substitute via natural or artificial opening endoscopic, is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code — including independent medical evaluation services for retirement disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — are administrative healthcare services and benefits management activities, not the specific gastrointestinal surgical procedure named in the code. The mismatch indicates either incorrect UNSPSC tagging by issuing bodies or that the code is being used as a catch-all for health services procurement without precision to the actual commodity scope.

The issuing bodies posting under this code span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and regional health systems, with activity across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. However, the absence of solicitations actually purchasing the surgical procedure itself—or even surgical services aligned with gastrointestinal procedures—signals that procurement professionals should verify code applicability before pursuing opportunities tagged here. The code's Commodity-level specificity to a particular surgical approach does not align with the administrative and staffing-focused work state and local bodies are actually buying under its tag.
