UNSPSC 85492166: Bypass coronary artery, two sites from right internal mammary, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass coronary artery, two sites from right internal mammary, 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 02114Z8

UNSPSC 85492166 Bypass coronary artery, two sites from right internal mammary, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific invasive cardiac surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations involve coronary artery bypass procedures or the procedural services the code nominally covers.

The mismatch suggests either miscoding by the issuing bodies or use of the code as a catch-all classifier within a healthcare procurement category. State and local entities posting under this code in the past two months include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System—a mix of municipal pension boards, county human resources and procurement divisions, state transportation agencies, and county health systems. Geographically, recent activity appears in Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Because the code shows no recent procurement of the actual coronary bypass procedure or related surgical services, it carries minimal relevance for firms pursuing state and local contracts for that specific work.
