UNSPSC 85601856 Bypass transverse colon to cutaneous via natural or artificial opening autologous tissue substitute, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic (Commodity) shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure code that does not align with the kinds of goods or services state and local governments are currently buying under this identifier. Recent opportunities tagged to this code include independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for youth in detention, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which correspond to the narrow procedural description embedded in the code itself. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the source data or a systemic issue with how this UNSPSC category is being applied by issuing bodies.

Given the absence of opportunities actually soliciting the procedure named in the code, business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for state and local procurement purposes. The recent postings (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System) reflect broader healthcare administration and staffing needs rather than the specific surgical intervention the code nominally describes. No geographic concentration or pattern of repeat buyers exists under this code in the current opportunity set.
