UNSPSC 85602442: Bypass transverse colon to cutaneous with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass transverse 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 0D1L4K4

UNSPSC 85602442 Bypass transverse colon to cutaneous with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose nominal title describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code do not align with that scope. The six posted solicitations range across independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal health plans, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve gastrointestinal bypass surgery or tissue substitutes. The mismatch suggests either a data-classification error in how opportunities are being tagged to this code or that the code is being used as a catchall for health services procurement outside its intended clinical specificity.

Issuing bodies across these opportunities include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal HR and benefits departments (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara), county corrections entities (Harris County), and county HR departments (Collier County). Recent activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas, with no clear geographic concentration. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFQ for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminal and vessel locations (due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary ancillary health professional staffing across thirteen service categories (due October 7, 2026). This code shows recent activity but exhibits poor alignment between its procedural title and the health services administration and staffing work actually being solicited.
