This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass sigmoid colon to cutaneous with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0D1N4K4

UNSPSC 85602410 Bypass sigmoid colon to cutaneous with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that exhibits a fundamental mismatch between its nominal scope and actual state and local procurement activity. The code's clinical procedure description does not align with the recent opportunities tagged under it. The state and local solicitations posted under this code focus instead on occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations, specialty surgical care networks, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which relate to the specific gastrointestinal surgical procedure named in the code. State and local issuers include county health systems, county human resources departments, county juvenile justice agencies, state transportation departments, and municipal retirement offices. The geographic spread of recent activity includes Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Florida (Collier County), Washington State, and Texas (Harris County).

The code shows no relevant recent procurement activity. The opportunities posted under UNSPSC 85602410 represent a classification error or system artifact rather than actual demand for the procedure described in the code's title. Bidders evaluating activity under this code should verify classification accuracy before committing resources; the mismatch suggests either that tagging occurred in error or that the code is being used as a catch-all for health services not classified elsewhere in the UNSPSC taxonomy. The representative recent solicitations—including the Washington State Department of Transportation occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix independent medical evaluation services RFP (due October 16, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara temporary health professional staffing multiple-award RFP (due October 7, 2026)—demonstrate that actual health services procurement by state and local bodies falls under different commodity and service codes than this one.
