UNSPSC 85602117 Dilation of transverse colon, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five most recent opportunities posted under this code — inmate medical and pharmacy services (Muscogee County Prison), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), virtual primary and urgent care (Monroe County), peer support services (San Mateo County), and fire department medical direction (Santa Monica) — are unrelated to the code's nominal scope of surgical gastrointestinal procedures. These solicitations represent healthcare administration, benefit management, and clinical services contracting across corrections, county benefits, regional health plans, behavioral health, and public safety, none of which align with hospital-based or surgical facility procurement under the stated code definition.

The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the tagging of these opportunities or a systematic misalignment between the UNSPSC code assigned and the actual goods or services being procured. No evidence in the source supports that state or local governments are using this code to solicit surgical procedures, medical devices, or related clinical supplies. If your firm serves state and local health systems or correctional medical providers, monitoring this code is not productive; focus instead on the healthcare service and administration codes under which these same entities are actively soliciting.
