This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in large intestine, open 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 0DWE0KZ

UNSPSC 85602809 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in large intestine, open approach is a Commodity code that shows substantial mismatch between its clinical procedure title and the state and local procurement activity currently tagged to it. The recent opportunities do not reflect surgical tissue revision or gastrointestinal procedures; instead, they cover independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, emergency and specialty care for youth in custody, and temporary clinical staffing placement. None of these services involve tissue substitution or open surgical revision. The code appears to have been applied incorrectly to these opportunities, or the procurement system is using the code as a catch-all for health services procurement broadly. State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation departments (Harris County), municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), county human resources divisions (Collier County), and city personnel departments (City of Long Beach). The activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) valued at $750,000 over five years to support disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) requiring board-certified occupational medicine physicians to conduct baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry system locations; the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out services (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) to manage Centers of Excellence networks for orthopedic, spine, oncology, and other specialty procedures for approximately 3,800 enrolled employees and retirees; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive, multiple-award pool solicitation (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) for temporary clinical staffing in audiology, radiology, respiratory care, sterile processing, and therapy services with no guaranteed volume. Given the code-to-activity disconnect, firms should verify actual scope alignment before pursuing opportunities posted under this code.
