This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right ventricle to thoracic artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach.

UNSPSC 85493727 Bypass right ventricle to thoracic artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code nominally describing a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it show little direct alignment with this code's scope. Recent solicitations cite this code while procuring occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical care carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which describes a discrete surgical implant or procedure. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or that the code has acquired institutional meaning divergent from its nominal UNSPSC definition. Issuing bodies across the opportunities include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), and cities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), spanning health benefits administration, occupational safety, detention medical care, and public employee retirement medical evaluations.

Geographic activity spans Arizona (City of Phoenix, solicitation RTMRFP26001, RFP, due October 16, 2026), California (City of Long Beach, solicitation HR26753, RFP, due October 7, 2026; Santa Clara County Health System, solicitation RFSQHHSFY270052, RFP, due October 7, 2026), Washington (WSDOT on behalf of Washington State Ferries, solicitation RFP20260825, RFP, due October 9, 2026; pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, solicitation 071626BNM, RFI, due September 25, 2026), and Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, solicitation 258414, RFP, due April 9, 2026). Recent representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations (maximum $750,000 over five years, response October 16, 2026) and Washington State Ferries' RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminals and shipyard locations (two-year term with five optional one-year extensions, pre-bid August 31, 2026). The code shows no coherent procurement activity under its stated scope and warrants monitoring for coding patterns rather than active pursuit based on the solicitations presently associated with it.
