UNSPSC 85494016: Insertion of pacemaker lead into pericardium, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of pacemaker lead into 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 02HN4JZ

UNSPSC 85494016 Insertion of pacemaker lead into pericardium, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity for state and local procurement. The recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code—inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county prison, pharmacy benefit management for a county workforce, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director services—do not align with the narrow clinical scope of pacemaker lead insertion procedures. These solicitations span correctional health management, pharmacy administration, telemedicine platforms, mental health support delivery, and EMS medical oversight rather than cardiac surgical devices or interventional cardiology services. The mismatch between the code's nominal commodity definition and the actual work being solicited suggests either a tagging error in the procurement system or that this code does not currently reflect meaningful state and local purchasing activity for the specific medical procedure it names.

Recent opportunities come from Georgia (Muscogee County Prison), Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), California (San Mateo County), and California (Santa Monica Fire Department), spanning county government purchasing offices, behavioral health agencies, and municipal fire services. Without evidence that state and local buyers are actively procuring pacemaker lead insertion as a standalone commodity or service line under this code, pursuing work under UNSPSC 85494016 is not recommended. Vendors in cardiac device manufacturing or implantation services should verify actual commodity coding against recent state and local RFPs and RFQs rather than relying on this code's nominal title.
