UNSPSC 85602838: Resection of right 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 0DTF0ZZ

UNSPSC 85602838 Resection of right large intestine, open approach is a Commodity code that does not map to active state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged under it span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which involve colonic resection or align with procedural surgery codes. This appears to be a taxonomy mismatch rather than genuine procurement activity under the code's stated scope.

The six recent solicitations reflect health care administration and staffing services across multiple issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit administration), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (occupational medical surveillance), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty services for detained youth), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary health professional staffing). Geographic spread covers Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Because the code itself has no clear alignment with the actual work being bought, this code warrants review of the upstream taxonomy assignment rather than pursuit as a procurement category for surgical or procedural services.
