UNSPSC 85601517: Repair appendix, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair appendix, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0DQJ4ZZ

UNSPSC 85601517 Repair appendix, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect comprehensive healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual care platforms, peer support programs, and medical director appointments — none of which align with the scope of surgical or procedural repair services the code name denotes. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source data or that state and local procurement systems are using this code to classify broader healthcare contracting activity rather than discrete surgical procedures.

The issuing bodies posting under the code span county governments and special-purpose health districts, including Muscogee County Prison (Georgia), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), Monroe County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), San Mateo County Health Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (California), and the Santa Monica Fire Department (California). Representative recent opportunities include Muscogee County's RFP No. 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services serving approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual spending around $8.7 million (posted April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services covering approximately 2,300 members (due April 16, 2026). The code shows activity concentrated in Florida and California with isolated Georgia posting, but the underlying work being solicited bears no operational relevance to the code's stated clinical scope.
