UNSPSC 85763408: Insertion of other device into gastrointestinal tract, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of other device into gastrointestinal tract, 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 0WHP0YZ

UNSPSC 85763408 Insertion of other device into gastrointestinal tract, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's abstract title suggests surgical procedures or medical devices, but the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect health benefit administration, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which involve gastrointestinal device insertion. This suggests a classification error in how state and local procurement offices have tagged their solicitations against the UNSPSC taxonomy, and the code does not reflect genuine purchasing activity in its intended domain.

The recent opportunities span diverse issuing bodies across multiple states: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit carve-out for health plan beneficiaries), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary clinical staffing). Response dates across the block cluster in early October 2026. Given the clear disconnect between the code's stated purpose and the work actually being solicited, this code is not actionable for vendors pursuing work in gastrointestinal device insertion or related surgical services at the state and local level.
