UNSPSC 85603418: Insertion of radioactive element into rectum, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of radioactive element into rectum, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic. 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 0DHP81Z

UNSPSC 85603418 Insertion of radioactive element into rectum, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific medical procedure involving radioactive element insertion—does not align with the actual work state and local solicitations are buying. Recent postings tagged under this code instead capture administrative medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve the procedure the code describes. This mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source data or a drift in how the code is being applied by issuing bodies.

The six recent opportunities span issuing bodies including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical record summaries for pension board determinations), the City of Long Beach (surgical and medical procedure benefit networks), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management covering 4,800 covered members and approximately $8.7 million in annual spending), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary health professional staffing for ancillary clinical roles). The opportunities posted between July and September 2026, with response dates ranging from September 25 to October 16, 2026. Given the fundamental disconnect between the code's clinical procedure scope and the administrative and occupational health services actually being solicited, pursuit under this code designation warrants clarification with issuing bodies on their coding intent before investment in qualification or proposal work.
