UNSPSC 85604109 Bypass ileum to sigmoid colon with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that sits outside the scope of state and local procurement activity reflected in recent opportunities. The code describes a specific surgical procedure — a medical intervention — whereas state and local governments do not procure individual surgical procedures as commodities or manage them through standard competitive bidding. The recent opportunities posted under this code are unrelated to the code's nominal scope: they cover independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out networks for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for transportation workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing services. None of these solicitations concern the procedure named in the code.

State and local procurement activity under this code shows no relevant recent opportunities. The mismatch between the code's medical-procedure name and the health services and benefits-administration work actually being solicited suggests the code has been applied incorrectly to these opportunities or does not reflect how state and local governments tag their health service contracts. Readers should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities posted under this Commodity code.
