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 0FB60ZZ

UNSPSC 85612339 Excision of left hepatic duct, open approach (Commodity) shows minimal relevance to state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure — excision of the left hepatic duct via open approach — yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it involve healthcare administration, pharmacy benefit management, virtual care platforms, peer support services, and fire department medical direction. None of these solicitations actually procure surgical intervention, inpatient facility services, or operative care matching the code's nominal scope. The mismatch suggests either data-entry error in the tagging or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy assignment and the work being bought.

The recent opportunities — from Columbus Consolidated Government (Muscogee County Prison inmate medical and pharmacy services), Collier County (pharmacy benefit management for 2,400 employees), Monroe County (virtual primary and urgent care for 2,300 members), San Mateo County (peer support for peer workers), and Santa Monica Fire Department (EMS medical direction) — span multiple issuing-body types across Florida, Georgia, and California, but they reflect healthcare administration, benefit design, and clinical direction rather than procedural surgery. Until state and local procurement offices actually solicit surgical supplies, operative care, or inpatient surgical services under this code, the activity tagged to it does not substantiate a market signal worth pursuing at the Commodity level.
