UNSPSC 85611121: Replacement of common bile duct with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of common bile duct 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 0FR90JZ

UNSPSC 85611121 Replacement of common bile duct with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that designates a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code bear no connection to surgical implants or procedural supplies. The available opportunities instead involve occupational and employee health services — independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, occupational medical surveillance for transit workers, specialty medical services for detained youth, temporary health professional staffing, pharmacy benefit management, and surgical benefits carve-out administration — none of which involve the procurement, installation, or replacement of bile duct prosthetics or surgical materials. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in how opportunities were tagged or that this code sees little or no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The solicitations shown do not reflect the scope implied by the code's formal name.

The geographic activity visible in the opportunities spans Arizona, Washington, California, Florida, and Texas, representing a broad national spread rather than regional concentration. The issuing bodies include municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city employee benefits programs (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county government (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and regional health systems (County of Santa Clara Health System). Without opportunities that actually procure bile duct replacements or related surgical devices under this code, no substantive pursuit strategy can be built from the available record.
