This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left large intestine with intraluminal device, open approach.

UNSPSC 85602954, Dilation of left large intestine with intraluminal device, open approach, is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged to it encompass occupational and disability medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with gastrointestinal intervention. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or the use of a misaligned code by participating jurisdictions. The actual procurements tracked under this code span multiple issuing bodies including city retirement offices, state departments of transportation, county health systems, and county procurement divisions, each soliciting distinct medical administration and clinical staffing services.

Recent activity appears across Arizona, California, Washington State, and Texas. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office is requesting independent medical evaluation services and medical record summary preparation for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications under its pension programs (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026). The Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of Washington State Ferries, is soliciting occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026). The City of Long Beach is seeking a surgical benefit carve-out program for its Anthem Blue Cross PPO plan covering approximately 3,800 employees and retirees (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026). Collier County is procuring pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members, with historical annual spending near $8.7 million (RFP 25-8414, deadline April 9, 2026). The County of Santa Clara Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows no coherent recent activity tied to its nominal gastrointestinal procedure scope; pursuit should be evaluated based on the actual medical administration and staffing services described in each opportunity rather than the code's stated definition.
