UNSPSC 85613005: Occlusion of pancreatic duct with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of pancreatic duct with intraluminal device, 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 0FLD0DZ

UNSPSC 85613005 Occlusion of pancreatic duct with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code showing little relevant recent state and local activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure — pancreatic duct occlusion — but the six recent opportunities posted under it in the source do not align with that work. Instead, the opportunities span independent disability medical evaluations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out programs (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty care for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations procure pancreatic duct occlusion devices or related surgical supplies.

The mismatch suggests either a UNSPSC coding error in the procurement notices or that the code is being used as a catch-all for miscellaneous health services work. Issuing bodies include state departments, counties, cities, and health systems across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. If pursuing opportunities tagged under this code, verify the actual work being solicited before investing pre-bid effort, as the nominal code definition does not reflect current procurement demand.
