UNSPSC 85603521: Removal of intraluminal device from lower intestinal tract, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of intraluminal device from lower intestinal tract, external 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 0DPDXDZ

UNSPSC 85603521 Removal of intraluminal device from lower intestinal tract, external approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six most recent opportunities posted under or near this code — spanning Phoenix retirement disability evaluations, Long Beach surgical benefit management, Washington State ferry occupational medical surveillance, Harris County juvenile detention healthcare, Collier County pharmacy benefit management, and Santa Clara County temporary health professional staffing — involve health plan administration, occupational medicine, emergency care coordination, pharmacy claims processing, and temporary clinical staffing, none of which involve removal of intraluminal devices from the lower intestinal tract. The mismatch between the code's clinical-procedure scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscoding by the issuing bodies or a fundamental disconnect between how state and local procurement systems classify medical services and the UNSPSC taxonomy's procedural focus.

The limited activity under this code and the categorical mismatch indicate that state and local governments are not currently procuring intraluminal device removal procedures as a line-item commodity or service. Pursuits under this code would require either clarification from issuing bodies on their actual procurement intent or identification of healthcare contracting vehicles—such as managed care agreements, hospital service contracts, or clinical provider networks—that embed such procedures as part of broader healthcare delivery scope rather than standalone commodities.
