UNSPSC 85493123: Insertion of cardiac lead into right atrium, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of cardiac lead into right atrium, 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 02H60MZ

UNSPSC 85493123, Insertion of cardiac lead into right atrium, open approach, is a Commodity code that bears no relation to the state and local procurement activity currently posted under it. The recent opportunities on file—independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—address healthcare administration, staffing, and benefit program management, not cardiac surgical procedures. The code's nominal scope (a specific cardiac implant procedure) and the work state and local governments are actually soliciting under this tag are fundamentally misaligned. No recent state and local solicitations documented in the source material request cardiac leads, cardiac implant procedures, or related cardiac surgical supplies.

Activity under this code shows little decision-relevant alignment with the stated UNSPSC commodity. A business development firm evaluating pursuit decisions should treat this code as inactive for state and local healthcare procurement and verify the correct UNSPSC classification for any target opportunity before investing pre-bid resources. The mismatch suggests either a data-quality issue in the underlying procurement database or a miscoding error by the issuing jurisdictions. If an opportunity explicitly solicits cardiac implant devices or cardiac surgical services, confirm the correct code assignment with the issuing body before responding.
