UNSPSC 85492936: Removal of extraluminal device from heart, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of extraluminal device from heart, 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 02PA4CZ

UNSPSC 85492936 Removal of extraluminal device from heart, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not involve cardiac device removal or percutaneous endoscopic procedures. Instead, the sourced solicitations cover independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these activities align with the code's nominal scope of cardiac interventional procedures. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or that the code is rarely used in state and local contracting for its stated purpose.

State and local issuing bodies posting opportunities under this code include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal health benefit administrators (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county human resources departments (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara). The geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas, reflecting activity across multiple regions. No single jurisdiction dominates the recent posting record, and no repeat buyers appear in the opportunities shown. Given the disconnect between the code's clinical definition and the health-services, administrative, and staffing work actually being solicited, this code does not represent a productive pursuit vector for firms specializing in cardiac device removal or interventional cardiology services.
