UNSPSC 85491944: Replacement of pulmonary trunk with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of pulmonary trunk with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 02RP4KZ

UNSPSC 85491944 Replacement of pulmonary trunk with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity names a specific surgical procedure; however, the actual work being solicited under this code bears no relationship to the code's nominal scope. Recent opportunities tagged to this code cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve replacement of pulmonary trunk or any surgical intervention on that anatomical structure. The code shows a classification mismatch between its technical medical nomenclature and what state and local procurement offices are actually buying when they apply this tag.

The geographic distribution of opportunities appears across Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), with no clear concentration in any single jurisdiction or state. Without relevant recent opportunities aligned to the code's actual scope, no meaningful assessment of market activity, issuing-body patterns, or representative procurements is possible under this code.
