UNSPSC 85494193: Destruction of pulmonary valve, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of pulmonary 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 025H0ZZ

UNSPSC 85494193 Destruction of pulmonary valve, open approach (Commodity) does not reflect the work actually being solicited by state and local governments under this code. The recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve pulmonary valve destruction or cardiac surgical procedures. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error or a code assignment that does not align with the commodity's intended scope.

The geographic spread of the six recent opportunities spans Washington State, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas, with issuing bodies including the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, Collier County, the County of Santa Clara Health System, and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department. No single jurisdiction appears more than once in the recent block. Given the absence of genuine pulmonary valve destruction procurement activity and the clear misalignment between the code's nominal scope and the opportunities tagged to it, this code warrants watch status; reclassification or code-assignment correction may clarify the actual commodity boundaries and issuing-body patterns.
