UNSPSC 85493537: Replacement of ventricular septum with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of ventricular septum with autologous tissue substitute, 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 02RM47Z

UNSPSC 85493537 Replacement of ventricular septum with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a highly specialized cardiac surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code do not align with that scope. Instead, the tagged solicitations span independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve ventricular septum replacement or percutaneous endoscopic cardiac intervention. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in how opportunities were tagged or a fundamental misalignment between the code's intended scope and actual state and local procurement activity under this code number.

The recent opportunities do reflect medical and health services procurement across diverse issuing bodies — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System — spanning Arizona, California, Washington, and Texas. Representative solicitations include Phoenix's October 16, 2026 RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (RTMRFP26001), Long Beach's October 7, 2026 RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits (HR26753), and WSDOT's October 9, 2026 RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825). Given the disconnect between the code's stated description and the actual work being solicited, this code warrants clarification with the relevant state and local procurement offices before pursuing opportunities tagged under it.
