UNSPSC 85602839: Resection of large intestine, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of 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 0DTE0ZZ

UNSPSC 85602839 Resection of large intestine, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity for state and local procurement purposes. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, but the five most recent opportunities posted under this identifier involve healthcare administration and management services entirely unrelated to surgical resection—including inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director services. None of these opportunities involve surgical procedures or medical equipment and supplies directly tied to colorectal surgery. The mismatch between the code's surgical scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either persistent classification error in the source system or that this code is being misapplied as a catch-all healthcare category at the local level.

The recent solicitations span three states—Georgia (Muscogee County Prison medical and pharmacy services), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management and Monroe County virtual care), and California (San Mateo County behavioral health peer support)—with no single jurisdiction appearing more than once. Issuing bodies include county commissioners, county health systems, and municipal fire departments. Representative recent work includes Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP 26-0008 for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026) and Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 family members (due April 9, 2026). Without relevant recent procurement activity directly addressing surgical services or equipment under this code, practitioners should verify accurate coding before pursuing opportunities or should seek clarification from issuing bodies on whether the code assignment reflects intended scope.
