UNSPSC 85492189: Bypass coronary artery, two sites from thoracic artery with autologous venous tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass coronary artery, two sites from thoracic artery with autologous venous tissue, 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 021149C

UNSPSC 85492189 Bypass coronary artery, two sites from thoracic artery with autologous venous tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. State and local procurement offices have tagged recent opportunities under this code that do not align with its surgical procedure scope. The opportunities posted include independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the specific cardiac surgical procedure named in the code itself. This mismatch suggests either misclassification of opportunities by issuing offices or limited actual procurement of this particular procedure through state and local competitive solicitations.

The jurisdictions appearing in the recent records span Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). The variety of issuing bodies — municipal retirement boards, city human resources departments, state transportation agencies, county health systems, and county probation departments — reflects the breadth of health-related services state and local governments buy, though none of the posted opportunities target procurement of the specific cardiac bypass procedure this code names. Vendors evaluating this code should verify that any future opportunities posted under 85492189 actually involve cardiac surgical services rather than the broader health services and staffing categories currently tagged to it.
