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 02VA0ZZ

UNSPSC 85492721 Restriction of heart, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity in the opportunities block. The code nominally describes a surgical cardiac procedure, but the five most recent opportunities posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services for county corrections facilities, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services — none of which involve cardiac surgery or the procedural medical services this code nominally names.

The mismatch between code taxonomy and actual buying activity suggests either systematic miscoding by the issuing bodies or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC category and the procurement systems state and local governments are using to tag healthcare and support services contracts. The opportunities show geographic spread across Georgia, Florida, and California and issuing bodies including county commissioners offices, county health departments, and municipal fire departments, but the procurement activities themselves — third-party medical administration, benefit management, virtual care platforms, and peer support contracting — fall outside the scope a cardiac-restriction code would typically represent. Until the source shows opportunities that explicitly involve cardiac surgical restriction services as procured by state or local buyers, this code appears inactive for meaningful business development purposes.
