UNSPSC 85493630: Extirpation of matter from ventricular septum, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from ventricular septum, 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 02CM4ZZ

UNSPSC 85493630 Extirpation of matter from ventricular septum, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it do not align with the code's nominal scope. The opportunities posted under this code cover independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for government health plans, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve cardiac or percutaneous endoscopic procedures. The mismatch suggests either a data error in the coding assignment or that this code is being used as a default placeholder by jurisdictions without more precise categories for general medical evaluation and occupational health services.

The issuing bodies represent a mix of city retirement offices, municipal health plan administrators, state transportation departments, county juvenile justice systems, county benefits consortia, and regional health systems across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP (due October 16, 2026 for $750,000 over five years); the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out RFP for Centers of Excellence (due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP for ferry workers across 14 locations (due October 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department's RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody (due September 25, 2026); Collier County's pharmacy benefit management RFP covering approximately $8.7 million in annual pharmacy spending (deadline April 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). Given the disconnect between the code's clinical scope and the opportunities actually being bought, firms should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing work under this code.
