UNSPSC 85604122: Bypass jejunum to descending colon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass jejunum to descending colon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0D1A4KM

UNSPSC 85604122 Bypass jejunum to descending colon with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that reflects a specific surgical procedure nomenclature; however, the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code bear no substantive connection to surgical gastrointestinal intervention. The opportunities instead center on occupational health surveillance, pension disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty surgical care coordination—none of which involve gastrointestinal bypass procedures. The code shows a significant mismatch between its procedural nomenclature and the actual work being solicited by state and local issuers, suggesting either a systematic data-classification error or incidental code application that does not reflect genuine procurement activity aligned with the code's stated scope.

The recent opportunities tagged under this code originate from diverse issuing bodies including state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county pension boards and retirement offices (City of Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara County, Collier County, Harris County), and municipal governments (City of Long Beach), geographically spanning Washington, Arizona, California, and Texas. Representative solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit applications under Arizona's Public Safety Personnel Retirement System (due October 16, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across multiple specialties (due October 7, 2026). Because the code's nominal content—surgical bypass procedures—does not align with the work actually being procured, this code warrants review for recategorization or data-quality assessment rather than pursuit under its stated definition.
