UNSPSC 85603129: Supplement large intestine with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement large intestine with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0DUE4KZ

UNSPSC 85603129, "Supplement large intestine with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach," is a Commodity code that carries a clinical procedure classification. The recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show no direct alignment with the code's nominal medical procedure scope. Instead, solicitations tagged to this code address occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve large-intestine supplementation or tissue-substitute procedures. This mismatch indicates either a classification error in the source data or that the code is being used as a catch-all taxonomy marker for health-services procurement broadly rather than for the specific procedure it nominally describes.

Activity under this code spans multiple states and issuing bodies: the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance across ferry locations), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluations for disability determination), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit management), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (specialty medical services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing). Representative recent opportunities include Washington State Ferries' request for occupational medical surveillance services with proposals due October 9, 2026 (IFB format, cost-based scoring), and the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years. The code shows no relevant recent activity for the tissue-substitute procedure its name suggests; state and local buyers appear to be using this Commodity classification for operational and administrative health-services contracting rather than for surgical procedure sourcing.
