UNSPSC 85494180: Dilation of tricuspid valve, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of tricuspid valve, open 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 027J0ZZ

UNSPSC 85494180 Dilation of tricuspid valve, open approach is a Commodity code that the source shows little relevant recent activity under. The code nominally describes a specific cardiac surgical procedure, but state and local procurement records under this code do not match that narrow medical intervention scope. Recent opportunities tagged to this code instead reflect administrative health services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which are tricuspid valve procedures or direct surgical services. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in how jurisdictions are tagging health-related solicitations or that the code's practical use in state and local procurement diverges substantially from its procedural definition.

The opportunities on file span Arizona, California, Washington State, Texas, and Florida across city retirement systems, county health systems, state transportation departments, and county juvenile justice agencies. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) is seeking independent medical evaluation services including disability medical record review and psychiatric examinations, with a five-year contract maximum of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) is sourcing occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers; and the City of Long Beach (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026) is requesting Centers of Excellence carve-out programs for surgical procedures including knee, hip, orthopedic, and spine interventions through its Anthem PPO plan. These are administrative, staffing, and managed-care functions rather than direct surgical performance. A business development firm evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for contracting purposes under its stated definition; the recent volume of opportunities appears unrelated to the procedural scope.
