UNSPSC 85602377: Dilation of sigmoid colon, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of sigmoid 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 0D7N4ZZ

UNSPSC 85602377 Dilation of sigmoid colon, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope describes a specific clinical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows little alignment with that description. The recent opportunities posted under this code instead reflect healthcare service procurement — inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management (PBM), virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve sigmoid colon dilation or endoscopic procedures. The mismatch between the code's clinical name and the actual work being solicited suggests either a tagging error in the state and local procurement system or a jurisdiction-specific classification practice that does not follow standard UNSPSC taxonomy. No opportunities in the recent block substantively concern the procedure named in the code.

The opportunities that do appear under this code span diverse issuing bodies across multiple states: the Columbus Consolidated Government in Georgia, Collier County and Monroe County in Florida, San Mateo County in California, and the Santa Monica Fire Department in California. These reflect county health systems, prison health services, and municipal departments procuring comprehensive healthcare support rather than specialized procedural services. The geographic spread includes Georgia, Florida, and California. Response dates for active solicitations include May 15, 2026 for the Muscogee County Prison inmate medical services RFP (Columbus Consolidated Government), April 9, 2026 for Collier County's pharmacy benefit management RFP, and April 16, 2026 for Monroe County's virtual primary and urgent care services RFP. Given the fundamental mismatch between the code nomenclature and current procurement activity, business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for the clinical procedure it names and should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing opportunities currently tagged under it.
