This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from cecum, 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 0DCH4ZZ

UNSPSC 85601533, Extirpation of matter from cecum, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated procedural scope. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code center on occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit program administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which constitute endoscopic procedures on the cecum. The code appears to have been misapplied to healthcare services procurement more broadly, resulting in a mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy definition and actual buying patterns.

The six opportunities span multiple states and issuing bodies, including the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational health surveillance for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical record review and independent physician examinations), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit network carve-out for approximately 3,800 city employees and retirees), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 employees), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories). The geographic spread includes Washington, Arizona, California, and Texas. Response dates range from September 25, 2026 through October 9, 2026, with one Collier County deadline of April 9, 2026. Given the substantial disconnect between the code's procedural definition and the healthcare administration and staffing services being procured, this code does not represent a viable opportunity category for vendors with endoscopic or gastrointestinal procedural expertise.
