UNSPSC 85604027: Bypass jejunum to transverse colon with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass jejunum to transverse colon with synthetic 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 0D1A0JL

UNSPSC 85604027 Bypass jejunum to transverse colon with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code assigned to a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code show no alignment with surgical gastrointestinal bypass work. Instead, the six posted solicitations span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for employee health plans, pharmacy benefit management, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the bypass jejunum procedure named in the code. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity indicates that this code carries little relevant recent state and local contracting volume for the surgical procedure it describes.

The geographic spread across recent postings includes Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), but these opportunities represent general healthcare administration, staffing, and benefits management rather than procedural surgery contracting. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services with proposals due October 16, 2026 and a maximum compensation of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance services with proposals due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System posted an RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories with proposals due October 7, 2026. This code appears to be a data-quality artifact and does not represent an active procurement category for state and local buyers pursuing the surgical procedure its name describes.
