UNSPSC 85601328: Occlusion of ileocecal valve with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of ileocecal valve with intraluminal device, open approach. 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 0DLC0DZ

UNSPSC 85601328 Occlusion of ileocecal valve with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity shows no alignment with this medical device or procedure classification. The six posted opportunities from Phoenix, Long Beach, Washington State Ferries, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County span independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational health surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management services, and temporary ancillary clinical staffing — none of which involve ileocecal valve occlusion devices or open surgical approaches to that valve. The code appears to be a mismatch against the state and local procurement activity it has been tagged with, suggesting either a classification error or that the code sees little relevant recent purchasing activity.

No recent state and local solicitations under this code address the purchase, supply, or implantation of ileocecal valve occlusion devices or related surgical services. The issuing bodies posting opportunities under this code include city pension boards, municipal health systems, county procurement offices, and state transportation departments — organizations that do solicit medical services but not the specialized surgical procedures this Commodity code describes. Vendors evaluating opportunities tagged to this code should verify the actual scope of work before pursuing, as the nominal code name does not reflect what state and local governments are currently buying under this classification.
