UNSPSC 85603427: Extirpation of matter from rectum, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from 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 0DCP8ZZ

UNSPSC 85603427 Extirpation of matter from rectum, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's clinical specificity — a narrow procedural intervention — does not match the scope of work appearing in the recent opportunities tagged under it. Instead, the opportunities cluster around occupational health surveillance, disability benefit evaluations, surgical network management, pharmacy benefit administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the endoscopic procedure the code nominally describes.

The most recent opportunities posted under this code originate from Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferries workers, RFP due October 9, 2026), City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical record review and independent medical evaluations, RFP due October 16, 2026), City of Long Beach (surgical carve-out benefit program, RFP due October 7, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, RFI due September 25, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management, RFP due April 9, 2026), and County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories, proposals due October 7, 2026). The code sees activity across four states — Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida — spanning state departments, county health systems, and municipal retirement offices. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being procured suggests either miscoding in the source data or that this code does not represent active state and local procurement demand for endoscopic rectal procedures.
