UNSPSC 85491906: Restriction of left pulmonary artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left pulmonary artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic 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 02VR4DZ

UNSPSC 85491906 Restriction of left pulmonary artery with intraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work being solicited under it in recent state and local opportunities. The code's nominal scope describes a specific clinical procedure — endoscopic intervention on the pulmonary artery — yet recent opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, occupational health surveillance for transportation workers, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth. None of these solicitations involve pulmonary artery procedures or match the code's stated medical intervention.

The mismatch between the code's clinical description and the actual procurement activity suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a data-classification error in the underlying source. The recent opportunities show issuing bodies across multiple jurisdictions and sectors—municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city personnel benefits (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, Santa Clara County)—purchasing general occupational health, employee benefits administration, and clinical staffing services. Because UNSPSC 85491906 does not meaningfully describe what is actually being bought, the code presents no reliable signal for business development targeting in this medical device or procedure category.
