UNSPSC 85492212: Bypass coronary artery, one site from aorta with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass coronary artery, one site from aorta with synthetic 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 02104JW

UNSPSC 85492212 Bypass coronary artery, one site from aorta with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that bears no meaningful relation to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the six recent opportunities posted under it—spanning Phoenix, Long Beach, Washington State, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County—actually solicit medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, youth detention healthcare, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit program administration. None of these procurements involves the device, implant, or surgical supplies the code name suggests. The mismatch indicates either systematic miscoding at the source or that the code has been inappropriately applied to administrative and staffing services that fall outside its intended scope.

The recent opportunities do reflect genuine state and local health procurement activity: Phoenix seeks independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations; Long Beach seeks Centers of Excellence networks for surgical procedure carve-out benefits; Washington State Ferries seeks occupational medical surveillance; Harris County seeks emergency and specialty inpatient services for detained youth; Collier County seeks pharmacy benefit management; and Santa Clara County seeks temporary staffing for ancillary clinical roles. However, none of these align with coronary artery bypass implants or surgical devices. Firms pursuing state and local opportunities under this code should verify independently that their service or product category belongs in 85492212 rather than rely on recent posting patterns, as the source suggests significant coding drift.
