UNSPSC 85611425: Occlusion of common bile duct, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of common bile duct, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic. 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 0FL98ZZ

UNSPSC 85611425 Occlusion of common bile duct, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code whose recent state and local procurement activity shows little alignment with its medical-procedure nominal scope. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve endoscopic biliary duct occlusion or procedural intervention. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health benefits administrators (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), county human resources and benefits coalitions (Collier County), and regional health systems (Santa Clara County). The code appears to have been applied to health services procurement broadly rather than to the specific endoscopic procedure its taxonomy position suggests, indicating a tagging or classification mismatch rather than genuine activity in this commodity segment.

The recent opportunities concentrate in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no single jurisdiction dominating activity. The Phoenix Retirement Office sought independent medical evaluators with five years' experience in disability assessment, requesting proposals due October 16, 2026 via RFP; Long Beach issued an RFP for surgical-center-network administration due October 7, 2026; and Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of Washington State Ferries, posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference scheduled August 31, 2026. Collier County's pharmacy benefit management RFP, posted August 20, 2026, carried a historical pharmacy spend of approximately $8.7 million annually. None of these solicitations reflect procurement of endoscopic biliary procedures or related medical devices, suggesting this UNSPSC code should be evaluated with caution for relevance to firms whose capabilities align with its stated taxonomy definition.
