UNSPSC 85602951: Drainage of large intestine, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage 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 0D9E0ZZ

UNSPSC 85602951 Drainage of large intestine, open approach (Commodity) shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not align with the actual work state and local governments are currently buying under this classification. Recent opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve colorectal surgical drainage or procedure-specific clinical services; rather, they encompass administrative healthcare benefits management, medical staffing, and occupational health programs. The mismatch between the code's medical-procedure nomenclature and the actual procurement activity suggests either a classification error in the source records or drift in how issuing bodies tag healthcare-related opportunities.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington State (Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with issuing bodies spanning municipal human resources and benefits departments, county procurement offices, state transportation authorities, and public health systems. The one concrete recent opportunity with direct clinical procurement relevance is the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), which seeks baseline, periodic, and exit examinations for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations under occupational health protocols—a healthcare service separate from the code's stated drainage procedure. The absence of solicitations explicitly requesting colorectal surgical or gastrointestinal drainage services under this code indicates it is not an active procurement vehicle in current state and local markets.
