UNSPSC 85602043: Reattachment of transverse colon, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reattachment of transverse 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 0DML0ZZ

UNSPSC 85602043 Reattachment of transverse colon, open approach is a Commodity code that does not match the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure performed on the colon; the recent opportunities posted under this code address occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve reattachment of the transverse colon or surgical procedures on that organ. The mismatch suggests a UNSPSC coding error in the state and local procurement system rather than active sourcing under the code's intended scope.

The recent opportunities do reflect broader state and local demand for medical services administration, occupational health programs, and clinical staffing. The Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of the Washington State Ferries, posted RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026, requiring occupational medicine board certification and medical examinations across 14 Washington locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, targeting disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel; the City of Long Beach posted HR26753 for a surgical carve-out benefit program due October 7, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System posted RFSQHHSFY270052 for a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. These reflect activity from state departments, city retirement offices, county health systems, and municipal benefits programs. Without verified activity specifically under this code's surgical scope, the code shows little relevant recent procurement momentum.
