UNSPSC 85604023: Bypass jejunum to transverse colon with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass jejunum to transverse colon with nonautologous 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 0D1A0KL

UNSPSC 85604023, Bypass jejunum to transverse colon with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach (Commodity), shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific gastrointestinal surgical procedure, yet the six most recent opportunities tagged under this code solicitate occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for employee health plans, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which align with the procedure's scope. The mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error in the source or that the code is being used as a catch-all classifier for diverse health care contracting outside its intended commodity definition.

The actual health care-related opportunities span state agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and specialized public bodies (pension boards). Representative solicitations include the Washington State Ferries' request for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals with responses due October 9, 2026 (RFP 20260825); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations with a $750,000 five-year maximum contract value and responses due October 16, 2026 (RTMRFP26001); and Santa Clara County Health System's multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing in 13 ancillary clinical categories with responses due October 7, 2026 (RFSQHHSFY270052). Geographic concentration includes California, Arizona, and Washington, with additional activity in Florida (Collier County) and Texas (Harris County). The code does not reflect genuine commodity-level procurement for the surgical procedure it nominally describes.
