UNSPSC 85602011: Restriction of ascending colon with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of ascending colon with intraluminal device, 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 0DVK0DZ

UNSPSC 85602011 Restriction of ascending colon with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal title refers to a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not reflect medical device procurement or surgical instrumentation. Instead, the code shows activity in occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record summarization, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty surgical network carve-out services—none of which align with the ascending colon procedure scope the code name suggests. The issuing bodies include state departments, counties, and municipal health systems, with the Washington State Department of Transportation, City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Collier County, Harris County, and the County of Santa Clara Health System appearing in recent solicitations. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being bought under it suggests either systematic tagging misalignment or that this particular code may see minimal activity relevant to its surgical-device definition.

Recent opportunities span Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida. The Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system workers across 14 Washington locations with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026 and proposals due October 9, 2026. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office issued an RFP for disability medical record summarization and independent medical evaluation scheduling for approximately 75 annual public safety pension disability applications with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and proposals due October 16, 2026. The City of Long Beach sought surgical and medical procedure carve-out services with Centers of Excellence for knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures, with proposals due October 7, 2026. The County of Santa Clara Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing across 13 clinical categories with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code shows limited recent activity directly aligned with its procedural definition and warrants clarification on correct code assignment before significant pursuit effort.
