UNSPSC 85491952: Repair coronary artery, four or more sites, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair coronary artery, four or more sites, 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 02Q34ZZ

UNSPSC 85491952 Repair coronary artery, four or more sites, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful recent activity aligned with its nominal medical-procedure scope. The recent opportunities posted under this code include independent medical evaluation services for public-safety pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for city employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve coronary artery repair procedures or percutaneous endoscopic interventions. The mismatch between the code's clinical specification and the actual work being procured suggests the code is either misapplied by issuing bodies tagging these opportunities or carries minimal relevance to current state and local purchasing patterns in this therapeutic area.

The recent opportunities span diverse issuing bodies — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and County of Santa Clara Health System (California) — but none transact in the specific procedure named by the code. Geographic activity appears scattered across the Southwest, West Coast, and Southeast, with no concentration in a particular region. The absence of coronary-procedure procurement at the state and local level under this code is a practical signal; state and local government does not typically commission or contract for individual interventional cardiac procedures as procurement commodities, and the current tagging of non-cardiac opportunities under this code indicates either data quality issues or fundamental misalignment between code definition and actual buying behavior.
