This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass ascending colon to sigmoid colon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach.

UNSPSC 85602460 Bypass ascending colon to sigmoid colon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure code rather than a procurement category state and local governments use. The recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code do not involve surgical procedures matching this description; instead, they cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, Centers of Excellence networks for surgical procedures, and specialty medical services for detained youth. The code appears to have been misapplied in tagging these solicitations, which center on medical administration, staffing, and benefit management services rather than a defined surgical intervention.

The issuing bodies across recent opportunities include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county government entities (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), and city governments (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026, covering baseline and periodic examinations for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026, for disability benefit determinations; and the Collier County Board of County Commissioners' pharmacy benefit management RFP due April 9, 2026, covering 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members. Given the disconnect between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited, this code shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity.
