UNSPSC 85602602: Excision of left large intestine, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left large intestine, via natural or artificial opening. 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 0DBG7ZZ

UNSPSC 85602602 Excision of left large intestine, via natural or artificial opening (Commodity) does not align with actual state and local procurement activity under this code. The source contains no recent solicitations for surgical procedures, medical device implants, or clinical interventions matching the code's nominal scope. Instead, the six recent opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, Centers of Excellence networks for voluntary surgical carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency/inpatient care for detained youth — none of which constitute the performance of excision procedures themselves or the procurement of supplies and instruments directly enabling them.

The mismatch suggests either a data-coding error in the state and local procurement system or a misalignment between taxonomy assignment and purchasing practice. State and local governments do procure medical services — the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP, the City of Phoenix disability evaluation RFP (due October 16, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara temporary health professional staffing RFP (due October 7, 2026) demonstrate active purchasing across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington — but these are administrative, staffing, and benefit-management services rather than surgical procedures. Until the code is assigned to opportunities that genuinely solicit excision services, supplies, or related clinical support, this category shows no actionable recent activity for business development purposes.
