UNSPSC 85602001: Restriction of sigmoid colon, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of sigmoid colon, open 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 0DVN0ZZ

UNSPSC 85602001 Restriction of sigmoid colon, open approach is a Commodity code with no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities filed under this code—inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county correctional facility, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services—do not involve surgical restriction procedures on the sigmoid colon and represent a substantial mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited. The code appears to have been misapplied to healthcare contracting opportunities that fall outside its surgical procedure classification.

No state and local governments have posted opportunities genuinely seeking the surgical service named in this code during the recent period covered by the source material. Vendors pursuing work in correctional health, employee health benefits administration, virtual care delivery, behavioral health support, or emergency medical services direction should identify and monitor the appropriate procedural or service-delivery codes under which those opportunities are actually being filed, as the present code does not reflect genuine procurement demand in these areas.
