UNSPSC 85601314 Resection of cecum, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve surgical procedures or the specific clinical intervention the code nominally describes. State and local procurement offices appear to have tagged these opportunities with this surgical-procedure code in error, or the code is being used as a catch-all for healthcare services contracting that does not align with its intended scope.

The issuing bodies in the records include county correctional and human resources departments (Muscogee County Prison in Georgia, Collier County in Florida), county commissioners' offices (Monroe County, Florida and San Mateo County, California), and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica, California). The geographic spread covers Florida, Georgia, California, and scattered other jurisdictions, but the code shows no meaningful concentration and the opportunities themselves do not reflect the surgical-procedure classification. No procurement activity under this code aligns with resection of cecum, open approach work, and the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the services actually being bought renders this code unreliable as a targeting vehicle for pursuing state and local healthcare contracting.
