About UNSPSC 85602338

UNSPSC 85602338 Release descending colon, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent solicitations posted under this code span comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and emergency medical services medical direction—none of which involve the procedural intervention the code nominally identifies. State and local procurement offices appear to have tagged these opportunities with a medical-procedure code despite their true scope falling outside that taxonomy tier.

The recent activity includes an RFP from Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department Purchasing Division (May 15, 2026 deadline) for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison covering approximately 576 offenders; Collier County Board of County Commissioners' RFP for pharmacy benefit management services spanning 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with approximately $8.7 million in historical annual pharmacy spending (April 9, 2026 deadline); Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members (April 16, 2026 deadline); San Mateo County's RFP for peer support services for behavioral health peer workers totaling $580,000 in funding (July 2, 2025 deadline); and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP for an emergency medical services medical director (October 16, 2025 deadline). The issuing bodies span county corrections, county human resources and health benefits, county employee health plans, county behavioral health agencies, and municipal fire departments across Florida, Georgia, California, and elsewhere. Because the code's nominal scope and the actual work solicited diverge significantly, this code shows little relevant recent activity for business development purposes focused on the stated procedural intervention.
