This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass ileum to ascending colon, open 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 0D1B0ZK

UNSPSC 85604004 Bypass ileum to ascending colon, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure; however, the recent state and local opportunities indexed under this code show no alignment with surgical services. The posted solicitations instead cover jail and prison inmate medical services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care, peer support programming, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve the procedure named in the code. The code shows little relevant recent activity in the state and local procurement context, and the mismatch between the code's clinical specification and the opportunities tagged to it suggests either miscoding in the source system or an error in code assignment.

The four recent opportunities span disparate issuing bodies and geographies with no pattern suggesting active market demand under this code's actual scope. Muscogee County, Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government) issued an RFP for inmate medical and pharmacy services due May 15, 2026; Collier County, Florida posted an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services due April 9, 2026; Monroe County, Florida solicited virtual primary and urgent care services with responses due April 16, 2026; and Santa Monica, California's Fire Department sought a medical director through RFP 455 with a proposal deadline of October 16, 2025. No opportunities under this code reflect surgical services, and the procedure-specific nomenclature of UNSPSC 85604004 bears no relationship to the healthcare administration and primary care services actually being bought.
