UNSPSC 85601801: Destruction of sigmoid colon, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of sigmoid colon, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic. 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 0D5N8ZZ

UNSPSC 85601801 Destruction of sigmoid colon via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity among state and local public buyers. The six most recent opportunities tagged under this code—spanning the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County between July and September 2026—are soliciting independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out networks, occupational health surveillance, youth detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve endoscopic sigmoid colon destruction or relate to the procedural intervention the code nominally describes.

The mismatch indicates either systematic miscoding of these health-system and benefits-administration opportunities or that state and local procurement offices are not currently sourcing the procedure itself under this taxonomy. Vendors pursuing surgical or gastroenterological services under UNSPSC codes should verify code alignment before bid preparation, as tagging accuracy at the Commodity tier varies among issuers. No contract opportunities for sigmoid colon destruction procedures appear in the recent-activity record.
