UNSPSC 85612023: Occlusion of left hepatic duct, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left hepatic duct, via natural or artificial opening. 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 0FL67ZZ

UNSPSC 85612023 Occlusion of left hepatic duct, via natural or artificial opening (Commodity) appears in state and local procurement records with no meaningful alignment between the code's clinical description and actual solicitation activity. The code nominally describes a specific hepatic surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record summarization, Centers of Excellence surgical carve-outs for municipal employees, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, emergency medical services for detained youth, and independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations. None of these solicitations involve hepatic duct occlusion or related surgical intervention. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or a fundamental disconnect between the UNSPSC taxonomy assignment and the actual services being procured.

The recent opportunities do reveal activity across state departments, county governments, and municipal agencies—including the Washington State Department of Transportation, the City of Phoenix, the City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System—but these buyers are not purchasing services that fit the code's stated scope. Given the absence of relevant recent opportunities, this code does not support a meaningful market signal for business development targeting state and local procurement under its stated definition.
