UNSPSC 85613426: Resection of accessory pancreatic duct, via natural or artificial opening

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of accessory pancreatic 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 0FTF7ZZ

UNSPSC 85613426 Resection of accessory pancreatic duct, via natural or artificial opening is a Commodity code with minimal alignment to recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — a highly specialized surgical procedure — does not match the actual work being solicited under this code designation in the state and local marketplace. Recent opportunities posted under this code include disability medical record summarization and independent medical evaluation coordination for public safety pension systems, occupational medical surveillance programs, pharmacy benefit management services, temporary health professional staffing for hospital ancillary services, surgical care bundling through Centers of Excellence networks, and emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which involve pancreatic duct resection or match the procedural specificity the code name implies.

The issuing bodies in the recent record span city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and municipal workforce agencies (City of Long Beach), with activity concentrated in Arizona, Washington, California, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations (due October 9, 2026, with pre-bid August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System qualification RFQ for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle). The mismatch between the code's procedural name and the administrative, occupational health, and benefits management work actually being solicited suggests this code has been misapplied to capture health-services procurement that does not involve the specific surgical procedure named in the Commodity designation.
