UNSPSC 85493080: Occlusion of left atrial appendage with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of left atrial appendage with intraluminal device, 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 02L70DK

UNSPSC 85493080 Occlusion of left atrial appendage with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code describes a specific cardiac surgical procedure, but recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management administration, surgical care network management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve left atrial appendage occlusion devices or the procedural work the code nominates.

The mismatch between code taxonomy and actual procurement scope suggests that state and local issuing bodies may be tagging administrative, staffing, or benefits-management work with this medical device code in error, or that the code does not represent a procurement category with active state and local demand. Issuers active in the recent record span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and health systems, but none of their solicitations address implantable cardiac devices or related procurement. Absent solicitations for actual left atrial appendage closure devices or related materials, this code does not present a current market opportunity under state and local contracting.
