UNSPSC 85601416: Occlusion of ileocecal valve, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of ileocecal valve, percutaneous 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 0DLC3ZZ

UNSPSC 85601416 Occlusion of ileocecal valve, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a clinical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged to this code cover occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, health professional staffing, and youth detention medical services — none of which involve ileocecal valve intervention. The mismatch suggests a data classification error or misapplication of the code to healthcare service procurements that fall outside the code's intended scope.

The recent opportunities reflect issuing bodies across multiple jurisdictions and administrative levels: the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational health for ferry workers), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluations for public safety pension boards), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit management), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (youth detention medical services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary clinical staffing). These solicitations span Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida, but they do not represent genuine procurement activity under the ileocecal valve code. A vendor evaluating this code for business development purposes should treat the recent activity as misclassified and conduct direct market research into state and local procurement of occupational health services, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy administration, and allied health staffing through channels that properly categorize these activities — rather than relying on code 85601416 as a reliable signal for future opportunity.
