UNSPSC 85602115: Dilation of descending 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 0D7M0ZZ

UNSPSC 85602115 Dilation of descending colon, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five recent opportunities posted to procurement platforms between February and April 2026 under or tagged with this code involve inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary care and urgent care services, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical director services — none of which relate to the gastrointestinal surgical procedure named in the code. The mismatch between the UNSPSC designation (a medical procedure code) and the actual work being solicited (healthcare administration, benefit management, and support services contracting) suggests the code has been applied inconsistently or incorrectly by issuing bodies, or that the code itself is not appropriate for state and local procurement taxonomy.

State and local jurisdictions do solicit healthcare and related services through RFPs — Columbus Consolidated Government (Georgia) for prison medical services, Collier County (Florida) for pharmacy benefit management, Monroe County (Florida) for virtual care, San Mateo County (California) for behavioral health peer support, and Santa Monica Fire Department (California) for medical direction — but these opportunities do not map to gastrointestinal surgical procedures. If your firm pursues healthcare services contracting with state and local bodies, monitor code families and classes that capture administrative healthcare procurement rather than this procedure-specific Commodity code.
