UNSPSC 85493745: Bypass left atrium to pulmonary trunk, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass left atrium to pulmonary trunk, 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 02174ZP

UNSPSC 85493745 Bypass left atrium to pulmonary trunk, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent relevant state and local procurement activity. The code describes a highly specific surgical procedure, but the five most recent opportunities tagged under it reflect procurement of healthcare services — inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical director services — none of which involve the cardiac bypass procedure named in the code. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either a systemic tagging error in the source data or that this code is not being used as intended by state and local procurement offices.

Without evidence of state and local governments actually purchasing cardiac bypass services under this code, the activity does not support a business development pursuit strategy. Vendors offering cardiac surgery or interventional cardiology services should verify that their offerings are tagged under the appropriate UNSPSC codes before allocating resources to state and local opportunities.
