UNSPSC 85602192 Bypass ascending colon to sigmoid colon with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that represents a highly specialized surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with its nominal scope. The code's abstract definition describes a specific colorectal surgical technique, yet the recent state and local solicitations tagged to it center on occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, Centers of Excellence networks for elective procedures, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve the colorectal bypass procedure the code nominally describes. This mismatch suggests the code carries minimal relevant procurement activity or reflects a cataloging inconsistency in how issuing bodies tag health service opportunities.

The geographic spread of the posted opportunities spans Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation ferries occupational health), Arizona (City of Phoenix retirement medical evaluations), California (City of Long Beach surgical carve-out benefits and County of Santa Clara temporary staffing), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department emergency services RFI), and Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management). Issuing bodies include state transportation departments, city retirement offices, county health systems and probation departments, and municipal procurement divisions. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services with responses due October 9, 2026, covering baseline and periodic examinations at 14 ferry system locations across Washington; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's proposal for disability medical record summaries and independent medical examinations due October 16, 2026, supporting approximately 75 annual public safety pension disability determinations; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code shows no clear relevance to the colorectal surgical procedure its number nominally represents.
