UNSPSC 85602046: Occlusion of sigmoid colon with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of sigmoid 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 0DLN0DZ

UNSPSC 85602046 Occlusion of sigmoid colon with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal taxonomy describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity shows no alignment with this medical device or surgical intervention. The opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, pension disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve sigmoid colon occlusion devices or open surgical approaches. This code appears to reflect a data-classification mismatch rather than a live procurement category; state and local buyers do not tag medical staffing, occupational surveillance, or benefit administration work under a code nominally reserved for a surgical device or procedure.

The recent posting activity signals no relevant state and local buying opportunity under this code. The Washington State Department of Transportation, the City of Phoenix, Collier County, the City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, and the County of Santa Clara Health System have all posted solicitations under UNSPSC 85602046, but the work each is actually procuring — occupational medical examinations, disability medical record summaries, pharmacy administration, temporary clinical staffing, and surgical benefit networks — does not match the code's scope. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for pursuit and verify correct code assignment before responding to any notice posted under 85602046.
