UNSPSC 85813211: Introduction of nutritional substance into biliary and pancreatic tract, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a administrative intervention or procedure to introduction of nutritional substance into biliary and pancreatic tract, percutaneous approach. This administrative 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 3E0J36Z

UNSPSC 85813211 Introduction of nutritional substance into biliary and pancreatic tract, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this classification. The recent opportunities posted against this code span virtual urgent care services, cancer registry services, retinal screening devices, employee health clinic operations, occupational health evaluations, EMS revenue billing, orthotic equipment, medical director services, wellness programs, and opioid use disorder treatment—none of which align with the gastrointestinal or hepatobiliary procedural scope the code nominally describes. This mismatch signals a taxonomy classification error rather than meaningful procurement activity under the code's actual definition.

State and local issuing bodies posting opportunities tagged to this code include health authorities, counties, municipalities, school districts, and special-purpose health districts across California, Nevada, Georgia, Colorado, Florida, Kansas, Oregon, Texas, Illinois, Minnesota, New Jersey, and other states. Representative recent solicitations show the scope of mislabeling: the Nevada Health Authority issued an RFP for Program of All Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) operations (proposals due December 10, 2026); San Mateo County Medical Center issued an RFP for Cancer Registry Services (proposals due October 12, 2026); and the City of Phoenix issued an RFP for cancer screening services for approximately 14,000 city employees (proposals due February 2, 2026). The issuing-body mix spans state health authorities, county health systems, municipal health departments, and health care procurement offices. Given the code's explicit focus on a specialized biliary-pancreatic procedure and the complete divergence of recent opportunities from that scope, this code shows minimal legitimate activity; vendors should verify the intended UNSPSC classification before pursuing opportunities posted against it, as the mismatch reflects either data quality issues in the posting source or systematic misuse of the taxonomy.
