UNSPSC 85493733: Bypass right ventricle to pulmonary trunk with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right ventricle to pulmonary trunk 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 021K4KP

UNSPSC 85493733 (Bypass right ventricle to pulmonary trunk with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach) is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal surgical procedure scope. State and local procurement activity tagged under this code does not reflect the surgical intervention named; instead, recent opportunities involve occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty medical center-of-excellence networks, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These represent health-care administration, staffing, and medical evaluation services rather than the specific cardiac surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies span state health systems, county human resources departments, county juvenile probation, municipal retirement offices, and state transportation agencies—a diverse portfolio suggesting either systematic miscoding at posting or use of this code as a catch-all for health-service procurement that falls outside tighter clinical categories.

Geographic activity appears across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with recent opportunities from the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP for independent medical evaluation services, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach (RFP for surgery benefit carve-out program, due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (RFP for occupational medical surveillance, due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (RFI for emergency and specialty medical services, due September 25, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (RFP for pharmacy benefit management services, due April 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (RFQ for temporary health professional staffing, due October 7, 2026). The code's recent volume and the divergence between its stated scope and actual procurement suggest limited utility for vendors seeking work in the surgical implant or interventional cardiology space; firms targeting health-service administration, clinical staffing, or occupational medicine may find mislabeled opportunities here worth monitoring, though the systematic miscoding warrants clarification with individual issuing bodies before pursuing.
