UNSPSC 85602120: Dilation of ascending colon with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation 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 0D7K0DZ

UNSPSC 85602120 Dilation of ascending colon with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity in the source. The code's medical-device description does not match the health services solicitations posted under it. Recent opportunities tagged to this code instead seek occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve gastrointestinal procedures or intraluminal devices. The mismatch suggests either a data-classification error in the issuing bodies' systems or a use of this code as a catch-all for health-related procurement without regard to its specific procedural scope.

State and local governments posting under this code include a state department of transportation (Washington State Department of Transportation), a large county health system (Santa Clara), county government (Harris County, Collier County), and municipal government (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach). Recent opportunities span Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas, with no single jurisdiction dominating. Representative recent work includes the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 locations (due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for public safety personnel disability determinations (due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code shows no consistent procurement focus and warrants review of classification accuracy before pursuit.
