UNSPSC 85613252: Removal of drainage device from pancreatic duct, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of drainage device from pancreatic duct, 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 0FPD40Z

UNSPSC 85613252 Removal of drainage device from pancreatic duct, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure—removal of a pancreatic duct drainage device via percutaneous endoscopic approach—yet recent opportunities tagged to this code involve independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefit carve-out programs for public employees, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These solicitations span occupational health, employee benefits administration, and detention health services, none of which align with the code's stated scope of a particular pancreatic surgical intervention.

The mismatch between code scope and recent opportunity content suggests that this code may be misapplied in state and local procurement tagging systems or that the code's intended use diverges substantially from its nominal name. The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System—spanning Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Without opportunities that genuinely reflect the surgical procedure named in UNSPSC 85613252, this code does not represent a reliable procurement signal for vendors in that specialty.
