UNSPSC 85491744: Occlusion of ductus arteriosus, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of ductus arteriosus, percutaneous 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 02LR3ZT

UNSPSC 85491744 Occlusion of ductus arteriosus, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities retrieved against it. The code describes a specific interventional cardiology procedure—percutaneous closure of a patent ductus arteriosus—yet the six most recent opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve ductus arteriosus occlusion or any related cardiac intervention procedure. The mismatch suggests a code-tagging error in the underlying state and local procurement database rather than legitimate procurement activity under this Commodity code.

State and local buyers are not currently soliciting for ductus arteriosus occlusion procedures under UNSPSC 85491744. The opportunities appearing in the recent block—issued by 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 across Arizona, California, Washington, and Florida—reflect healthcare administrative and staffing services, not cardiac procedures. Until the code assignment is corrected or legitimate opportunities tied to the procedure's actual scope appear in state and local solicitations, pursuit activity under this code warrants no action.
