UNSPSC 85604017 Bypass jejunum to sigmoid colon, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with the state and local procurement activity in the source. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it document procurement of healthcare services that do not involve this or any surgical intervention — inmate medical and pharmacy administration, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care delivery, peer mental health support services, and fire department medical direction.

The geographic spread of the four substantive opportunities spans Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Muscogee County), and California (San Mateo County). The issuing bodies are county boards of commissioners and county health departments procuring health services for employee health plans, correctional facilities, and behavioral health programs. The code shows no activity pattern that reflects orthopedic, general, or colorectal surgical services — the scope the UNSPSC number nominally describes. State and local governments do not appear to be procuring bypass jejunum to sigmoid colon procedures under this code. The source does not support pursuit of this code for business development purposes targeting state and local surgical procurement.
