UNSPSC 85602348: Occlusion of descending colon, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of descending 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 0DLM4ZZ

UNSPSC 85602348 Occlusion of descending colon, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually buying under this tag. The recent solicitations assigned to this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, surgical Center of Excellence networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency services for youth in custody—none of which align with the code's nominal clinical descriptor of a specific gastrointestinal procedure. The mismatch suggests either a data-quality issue in how opportunities are being tagged against UNSPSC codes or a broad misapplication of this Commodity code across unrelated medical and health-services procurement. No solicitations directly describe procurement for endoscopic occlusion services or related medical equipment and supplies.

Opportunities do surface across issuing bodies spanning state departments, counties, and municipal health systems. The Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries) posted RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services with proposals due October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach posted HR26753 for surgical benefit carve-out management with proposals due October 7, 2026; and Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services with a historical annual spend of approximately $8.7 million. The County of Santa Clara Health System solicited temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary categories (proposals due October 7, 2026), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and inpatient hospital services for detained youth (responses due September 25, 2026). Given the lack of alignment between the code name and the actual work being procured, this code shows little relevant recent activity for business development professionals pursuing endoscopic or gastrointestinal medical-device opportunities.
