This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass cecum to transverse colon with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0D1H4KL

UNSPSC 85601561 Bypass cecum to transverse colon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — a specific gastrointestinal surgical procedure — does not align with the actual work state and local governments are buying under this code. The recent opportunities posted show no procurement related to this surgical intervention. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, specialty and emergency medical services for youth in custody, and health plan administration. These are administrative and clinical support services fundamentally unrelated to the code's stated procedure.

The mismatch between the code definition and the procurement activity it indexes signals either a data-tagging error in state and local procurement systems or drift in how the code is applied in practice. Professionals evaluating this code should recognize that the UNSPSC classification does not reflect actual buyer intent or opportunity scope. The recent opportunities come from Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara Health System), Washington State (Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), with response dates ranging from September through October 2026. Given the consistent disconnect between the code name and the services actually being solicited, this code shows little relevant recent activity for vendors specializing in the gastrointestinal surgical procedure it nominally describes.
