UNSPSC 85492739: Removal of extraluminal device from heart, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of extraluminal device from heart, open 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 02PA0CZ

UNSPSC 85492739 Removal of extraluminal device from heart, open approach is a Commodity code that bears no relationship to the state and local procurement activity appearing in the recent opportunities block. The code nominally describes a cardiac surgical procedure; the six recent solicitations posted between July and September 2026 instead reflect demand for health insurance and benefits administration services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, and specialty surgical center-of-excellence networks. None of these opportunities involve removal of cardiac devices, nor do they constitute procedural care delivery aligned with the code's surgical description. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source data or a fundamental misalignment between the UNSPSC classification and the actual work state and local governments are buying under this code designation.

No recent state and local procurement activity directly relevant to the code's nominal scope appears in the source material. A vendor evaluating this code should clarify the classification with the state or local procurement office before investing in business development, as the posted opportunities do not support pursuit under this UNSPSC number.
