UNSPSC 85602267 Bypass transverse colon to cutaneous with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of work being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical center-of-excellence networks, and youth detention medical services — none of which involve bypass colon procedures or fall within surgical procedure coding. The mismatch between the code's surgical procedure name and the range of health services and benefits administration work actually being solicited suggests either a systematic categorization error in the state and local procurement systems tagging these opportunities or misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local buyers classify healthcare services and administration work. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, county health systems, state departments of transportation, counties, and municipalities procuring diverse healthcare services, administration, and staffing.

Recent activity spans Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation RFP due October 16, 2026 with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years), California (City of Long Beach's surgical center-of-excellence carve-out RFP due October 7, 2026 and Santa Clara County Health System's temporary health professional staffing RFP due October 7, 2026), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference scheduled for August 31, 2026), Florida (Collier County's pharmacy benefit management RFP with a deadline of April 9, 2026 and historical annual spending of $8.7 million), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department's RFI for specialty and emergency medical services due September 25, 2026). The code shows no coherent recent procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope and should be treated as unreliable for targeting purposes under its stated definition.
