UNSPSC 85491840: Dilation of coronary artery, one site, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of coronary artery, one site, 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 02703ZZ

UNSPSC 85491840 Dilation of coronary artery, one site, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local government procurement activity in the source. The code names a specific cardiovascular surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code describe independent medical evaluation services for pension-board disability determinations, occupational health surveillance for ferry workers, pharmacy benefit management administration, surgical care carve-out programs for employee health plans, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these procurements involve coronary-artery dilation procedures or the clinical interventions the code's nomenclature suggests. The mismatch indicates either a cataloging error in how these opportunities were tagged or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC classification and state and local agency tagging practice.

The issuing bodies span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and a municipal health system. The geographic spread includes Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Because the code's nominal scope does not match the actual work being solicited, the opportunities do not represent a coherent procurement market segment for a vendor pursuing contracts under UNSPSC 85491840 as named.
