UNSPSC 85492230: Bypass coronary artery, one site from coronary 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, one site from coronary 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 210493

UNSPSC 85492230 Bypass coronary artery, one site from coronary artery with autologous venous tissue, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific cardiac surgical procedure, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show little alignment with the procedure scope. The tagged opportunities span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgery benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational health 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 bypass surgery or the specific procedural technique the code names. This code shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and actual procurement activity in state and local contracting.

The recent opportunities originate from Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), reflecting geographically dispersed issuing bodies spanning city retirement systems, municipal employee benefit programs, state transportation agencies, county health systems, and juvenile justice departments. However, because the tagged opportunities do not substantively involve coronary artery bypass procedures or comparable surgical services, the code does not present meaningful decision signals for vendors pursuing state and local work in cardiac surgery, vascular interventions, or related procedural services. A business development professional should verify coding accuracy before committing resources to opportunities under this code.
