UNSPSC 85611607: Restriction of cystic duct with extraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of cystic duct with extraluminal device, 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 0FV80CZ

UNSPSC 85611607 Restriction of cystic duct with extraluminal device, open approach (Commodity) shows a significant mismatch between its procedural medical code designation and the actual scope of state and local government procurement activity under this classification. Recent opportunities tagged to this code do not solicit surgical procedure supplies or devices aligned with the code's technical medical meaning. Instead, state and local issuing bodies are using this code to classify a broad range of occupational health services, medical surveillance, benefits administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and independent medical evaluations — none of which involve cystic duct restriction or surgical devices. The actual buying pattern under this code encompasses medical record review and summarization, occupational baseline and periodic examinations for transportation workers, specialty surgical carve-out benefits coordination through Centers of Excellence networks, pharmacy claims processing and formulary management, and temporary placement of ancillary clinical staff across multiple specialties.

Recent activity spans municipal, county, state, and regional health system issuing bodies across multiple states. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office is soliciting independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach is requesting proposals for surgical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation is procuring occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers across 14 locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); Collier County is requesting pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026); and Santa Clara County Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing (RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). This code's recent activity does not reflect its intended clinical procedure scope and may indicate a taxonomic misclassification in the jurisdictions' procurement coding practices. The mismatch limits the code's utility for firms pursuing contracts aligned with the code's nominal definition.
