UNSPSC 85493907: Release pericardium, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release pericardium, percutaneous 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 02NN3ZZ

UNSPSC 85493907 Release pericardium, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope describes a specific cardiac surgical procedure, but the recent state and local procurement activity recorded under it does not reflect cardiac intervention work. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span healthcare service management across correctional, county employee benefit, county virtual care, peer support, and municipal fire department medical direction contexts. The mismatch between the code's procedural name and the actual scope of solicited services suggests either a data-entry error in how opportunities were classified or a significant disconnect between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local procurement systems apply medical codes. The work being solicited includes comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services for correctional facilities, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, mental health peer support programs, and medical directorship for emergency services — none of which align with percutaneous pericardial release.

The issuing bodies include county governments (Muscogee County, Georgia; Collier County, Florida; Monroe County, Florida; San Mateo County, California) and a municipal fire department (Santa Monica, California), with county health and human resources departments as the primary users. Geographically, the recent activity centers on Florida (two solicitations from Collier and Monroe counties), with additional opportunities in Georgia and California. Representative recent opportunities include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services managing approximately $8.7 million in annual pharmacy spending (due April 9, 2026), Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services effective October 1, 2026 (due April 16, 2026), San Mateo County's RFP for peer support for peer workers funded at $580,000 over three years (due July 2, 2025), and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP for a medical director (due October 16, 2025). Given the fundamental mismatch between the code name and the solicitations recorded under it, this code does not represent a reliable basis for pursuing state and local opportunities in its stated domain.
