This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass ileum to sigmoid colon with autologous tissue substitute, 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 0D1B07N

UNSPSC 85604013 Bypass ileum to sigmoid colon with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure, yet recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little direct alignment with that medical-procedural definition. The code appears to be applied across a broader range of health services procurement — including occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, and surgical carve-out benefit programs — suggesting either systematic misclassification or use of the code as a catch-all for health services contracting. The actual scope of work being solicited encompasses medical record review and summarization, occupational health examinations, specialty surgical networks, pharmacy claims processing, and clinical staffing placement, none of which map to a specific surgical technique. Issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara, Collier County, Harris County), city pension boards (City of Phoenix), and municipal governments (City of Long Beach), reflecting a mix of public-sector healthcare administration and occupational health purchasing rather than hospital or surgical-procedure procurement.

Activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with the largest concentration in California and the Pacific Northwest. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) covering baseline, periodic, and exit examinations for ferry workers across 14 locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP (due October 16, 2026) for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications at a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out RFP (due October 7, 2026) offering Centers of Excellence networks for knee, hip, spine, heart, and oncology procedures; Collier County's pharmacy benefit management RFP (due April 9, 2026, now closed) covering approximately 2,400 employees with $8.7 million in historical annual spending; and Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle (due October 7, 2026) across 13 ancillary clinical categories. The code shows no relevant recent activity and should be monitored for classification accuracy rather than pursued without verification that actual opportunity scope aligns with surgical-procedure definitions.
