This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of abdomen subcutaneous tissue and fascia, 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 0JB80ZZ

UNSPSC 85641310 Excision of abdomen subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach is a Commodity code that does not map to state and local government procurement activity reflected in recent opportunities. The code names a specific surgical procedure—excision of abdominal subcutaneous tissue and fascia via open surgical approach—but recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code actually procure occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These procurements span administrative medical services, health plan benefits management, and staffing coordination rather than surgical procedures themselves. State and local governments do not directly purchase surgical procedures as line items; they purchase health insurance, staff augmentation, medical record review, and benefits administration services that may reference surgical procedures within scope but are fundamentally different procurement categories.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the opportunities posted under it suggests either a classification error in how these opportunities were tagged or a divergence between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local procurement systems apply it. Recent activity includes the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering disability benefit determinations for approximately 75 annual applications; the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-outs (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) managing knee, hip, spine, and oncology procedures through Centers of Excellence; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) across 14 ferry terminal locations; the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) across ancillary clinical categories; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department's RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management ($8.7 million historical annual spend, April 9, 2026 deadline). None of these opportunities actually solicit or procure the surgical procedure named by the code. This code shows little relevant recent state and local activity in its actual scope.
