UNSPSC 85603800: Lower digestive system-rectum anus, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This class includes one or more of 25 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the structures of the lower digestive system - rectum and anus with percutaneous endoscopic approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0D.

UNSPSC 85603800 Lower digestive system-rectum anus, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Class code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities indexed under it. The most recent opportunities solicited under this code encompass inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve lower digestive system procedures or endoscopic approaches. The code shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and the work actually being procured in the state and local market.

The issuing bodies posting under this code include county correctional facilities (Muscogee County Prison via Columbus Consolidated Government), county governments managing employee health plans (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Monroe County Board of County Commissioners), county behavioral health agencies (San Mateo County Health), and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica Fire Department). Geographic activity spans Georgia, Florida, and California. Recent opportunities include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services due May 15, 2026; Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 7,200 enrolled members and historically representing $8.7 million in annual pharmacy spending; Monroe County's request for virtual primary and urgent care services covering 2,300 county members, effective October 1, 2026; and Santa Monica Fire Department's selection of a medical director for 18,000 annual emergency calls. The code does not reflect the actual scope of state and local procurement activity — queries using this code should be verified against the purchasing jurisdiction's procurement documents to confirm alignment with clinical or administrative services being solicited.
