UNSPSC 85611816: Replacement of cystic duct with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of cystic duct with synthetic 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 0FR84JZ

UNSPSC 85611816 Replacement of cystic duct with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that sits at the bottom of a healthcare procedure taxonomy. The recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show minimal relevance to its nominal surgical scope. Recent solicitations tagged with this code instead cover occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these activities align with the specific surgical procedure—cystic duct replacement via endoscopic technique—that the code describes. The mismatch suggests that state and local procurement offices are using this code incorrectly or that the code's assignment in available databases does not reflect actual buying patterns.

The issuing bodies across the recent opportunities span multiple jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix (disability medical evaluations for pension boards), the City of Long Beach (employee surgical benefit carve-out), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational health surveillance for ferry workers), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (youth detention medical services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing). Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), Long Beach's RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits (due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (due October 9, 2026). Given the consistent disconnect between the code's stated procedure and the services actually being procured, this code shows no actionable market signal for vendors offering cystic duct replacement or similar surgical procedures.
