UNSPSC 85602451 Bypass transverse colon to transverse colon with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific gastrointestinal surgical procedure; however, recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with that procedure scope. The code appears to be applied inconsistently or overclassified in state and local procurement systems, as the recent solicitations tagged to it involve independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty healthcare services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which correspond to colonic bypass surgery or tissue grafting. State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health plans (Long Beach), state departments of transportation (Washington), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county human resources divisions (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara).

Geographic activity appears scattered across Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas, with no concentration in a single state or region. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP 26001 for independent medical evaluation services (response due October 16, 2026) covering disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system employees across 14 Washington locations (response due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026); the City of Long Beach's HR26753 for a surgical benefit carve-out program serving approximately 3,800 active employees and retirees (response due October 7, 2026); and Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 7,200 total members (response due April 9, 2026). The code shows no coherent procurement activity — vendors should verify code classification accuracy with the issuing body before pursuing opportunities tagged to this commodity, as the mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual work being bought presents significant risk of misunderstanding or wasted effort.
