UNSPSC 85602141: Bypass descending colon to rectum with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass descending colon to rectum with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0D1M0KP

UNSPSC 85602141 Bypass descending colon to rectum with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its surgical-procedure scope. The six recent state and local opportunities posted under this code are for medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefits carve-outs, youth detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve colorectal bypass procedures or tissue-substitute implants. The code appears to have been misapplied to health services and staffing solicitations rather than the specific surgical intervention the code nominally describes.

State and local procurement activity under this code does not support a focused business development strategy. The opportunities tagged to the code span county pension boards (Phoenix), municipal benefits offices (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), juvenile detention systems (Harris County), county health consortiums (Collier County), and regional health systems (Santa Clara County), but none address the code's defined commodity. The geographic breadth—Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida—reflects general healthcare procurement rather than concentration in any particular market for the surgical procedure the code names. Without recent opportunities that actually involve colorectal bypass surgery or related tissue-substitute implants, this code warrants a skip rather than pursuit.
