UNSPSC 85493240: Bypass right ventricle to left pulmonary artery with autologous venous tissue, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right ventricle to left pulmonary artery with autologous venous tissue, 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 021K09R

UNSPSC 85493240 Bypass right ventricle to left pulmonary artery with autologous venous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services for pension board disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve cardiac surgical procedures or tissue grafting. The code appears to describe a specific cardiothoracic surgical technique; state and local procurement activity in this timeframe shows no requests for such procedures or related implants, supplies, or equipment.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the opportunities tagged to it suggests either a data classification error or a lag between code assignment and actual purchasing intent. No recent state and local opportunities under this code support a business development strategy targeting cardiothoracic bypass grafting. Buyers in this sample — including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and Santa Clara County Health System — are soliciting administrative health services, benefit management, and temporary staffing rather than cardiac surgical care.
