UNSPSC 85611611: Resection of cystic duct, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of cystic duct, 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 0FT80ZZ

UNSPSC 85611611 Resection of cystic duct, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show virtually no alignment with that narrow clinical scope. Instead, the solicitations span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out programs, and youth detention medical services—none of which involve cystic duct resection or any defined surgical procedure. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or that this UNSPSC designation is being applied to broader healthcare administration and occupational health management activities rather than to a specific surgical intervention. Issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara, Harris County, Collier County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and county boards (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). Work being solicited ranges from occupational medicine examinations and disability case medical record review to PBM administration and provider network carve-outs—all administrative or diagnostic in nature rather than surgical.

Geographic activity is concentrated in California, Arizona, Washington, and Florida, with additional activity in Texas. Recent representative opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation soliciting occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 locations (RFP posted August 25, 2026, due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office seeking disability medical record summary preparation and independent medical examinations for public safety pension applicants (RFP posted September 16, 2026, due October 16, 2026, with a $750,000 five-year maximum contract value); the City of Long Beach requesting surgical procedure carve-out management for a Centers of Excellence network (RFP posted August 26, 2026, due October 7, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (proposal due October 7, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity directly tied to its stated scope and appears to serve as a catch-all miscoded category for occupational and administrative healthcare services rather than surgical procedures.
