UNSPSC 85493558: Replacement of atrial septum with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of atrial septum with nonautologous 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 02R54KZ

UNSPSC 85493558, Replacement of atrial septum with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted under this code involve occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, Centers of Excellence surgical carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention emergency care — none of which involve atrial septum replacement or the procurement of devices or supplies for that procedure. The mismatch indicates that state and local procurement offices are tagging opportunities with this code inappropriately, or the opportunities have been miscategorized by the data source.

The represented jurisdictions — 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 — are acquiring medical services, staffing, and administrative support unrelated to the code's stated scope. State and local buyers pursuing contracts under this code should verify the actual scope before investing in pursuit strategy, as current activity does not map to atrial septum replacement services or related medical devices.
