UNSPSC 85602336: Repair ascending colon, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0DQK4ZZ

UNSPSC 85602336 Repair ascending colon, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code, but the source contains no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with this clinical procedure code. The five most-recent opportunities posted under this code involve inmate medical and pharmacy services (Columbus Consolidated Government), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), virtual primary and urgent care services (Monroe County), peer support for peer workers (San Mateo County), and fire department medical direction (Santa Monica Fire Department) — none of which are endoscopic repair procedures or related to gastroenterological interventions. The source does not support characterization of actual scope of work, issuing-body patterns, or geographic concentration under this code.

State and local procurement offices appear to have tagged these opportunities with this UNSPSC code despite a substantive mismatch between the code's clinical descriptor and the services being solicited. Without evidence of genuine endoscopic repair demand in the recent state and local market, this code shows little actionable procurement signal. A business development team evaluating this code should verify whether state and local health systems, departments of corrections, or other public healthcare entities are in fact purchasing endoscopic repair services under this or a related code before committing resources to pursue it.
