This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of lesser omentum, 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 0D5T4ZZ

UNSPSC 85603249 Destruction of lesser omentum, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet recent opportunities tagged under this code encompass occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent disability medical evaluations, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve the procedure named in the code. The mismatch between the code's technical surgical descriptor and the breadth of general medical administration, staffing, and benefit-management work being solicited suggests either systematic miscoding or that this UNSPSC designation is being applied as a catchall for health services procurement that does not fit more narrowly.

State and local issuers soliciting under this code span counties (Santa Clara, Collier, Harris), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services to support disability benefit determinations (response due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (response due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualified-vendor-pool solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (response due October 7, 2026). Geographic activity appears concentrated in California, Washington, Arizona, and Florida, with no standout repeat buyers evident from the recent posting block. Given the code's weak alignment with the actual scope of work being procured, firms should verify coding accuracy in specific RFPs rather than rely on this UNSPSC designation alone for market intelligence.
