UNSPSC 85494010: Repair pericardium, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair pericardium, 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 02QN4ZZ

UNSPSC 85494010 Repair pericardium, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under it involve healthcare administration, pharmacy benefit management, virtual care platforms, peer support services, and medical directorship—none of which involve pericardial repair or percutaneous endoscopic procedures. The misclassification suggests this code does not reflect genuine state and local buying patterns for the surgical service it names, and vendors pursuing contracts in this category should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before committing resources to pursuit.

The recent opportunities attributed to this code span Florida, Georgia, and California across county health systems and county commissioners' offices. Collier County and Monroe County in Florida issued RFPs for pharmacy benefit management and virtual primary and urgent care services with response dates in April 2026; Columbus Consolidated Government in Georgia solicited inmate medical and pharmacy services for Muscogee County Prison with a May 15, 2026 deadline; and San Mateo County in California posted an RFP for peer support pilot services with a July 2, 2025 due date. Santa Monica Fire Department in California issued an RFP for a Fire Department Medical Director with an October 16, 2025 proposal deadline. The wide geographic spread and diversity of issuing bodies—county boards of commissioners, consolidated city governments, and municipal departments—suggest that if this code is being used deliberately, activity is scattered rather than concentrated. Given the absence of any recent opportunities that actually involve pericardial repair or endoscopic surgical procedures, this code warrants assessment as inactive or misapplied for procurement purposes rather than as an active buying category.
