UNSPSC 85603839: Removal of monitoring device from lower intestinal tract, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of monitoring device from lower intestinal tract, 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 0DPD42Z

UNSPSC 85603839 Removal of monitoring device from lower intestinal tract, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record summarization, surgical benefit carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services — none of which involve endoscopic procedures or lower intestinal tract intervention. This appears to be a taxonomy mismatch between the code's nominal clinical procedure title and how state and local issuing bodies are tagging unrelated healthcare and benefits administration work.

The geographic spread of these misaligned opportunities spans Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation occupational medical surveillance), Arizona (City of Phoenix disability medical evaluations), California (City of Long Beach surgical benefit carve-out and County of Santa Clara temporary health professional staffing), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department emergency medical services). The issuing bodies include state transportation agencies, city retirement offices, county health systems, and county human resources or probation departments. No meaningful pattern of procurement activity aligns to the code's actual scope, and prospective bidders evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for endoscopic device removal or related gastrointestinal procedures in state and local markets.
