UNSPSC 85612900: Pancreas pancreatic duct, open approach-part A

This class includes one or more of 24 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the structures of the pancreas and pancreatic duct with open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0F.

UNSPSC 85612900 Pancreas pancreatic duct, open approach-part A is a Class code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure on the pancreas — bears no relationship to the healthcare and human services solicitations posted under it in the first half of 2026. The recent opportunities tagged to this code include inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support programs for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve pancreatic surgery or surgical procedures at all. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the source material or a systematic coding misalignment that renders this code unreliable for tracking actual surgical procurement at the state and local level.

The geographic spread of the unrelated solicitations spans Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Muscogee County), California (San Mateo County), and California again (Santa Monica Fire Department), with issuing bodies including county health departments, county boards of commissioners, county procurement divisions, and municipal fire departments. No repeated issuing bodies appear in the recent record, and no opportunities specifically procure pancreatic surgery, surgical services, or related medical procedures. Until the code-to-opportunity alignment improves, this code does not offer a reliable signal for business development targeting state and local surgical procurement.
