UNSPSC 85494219: Supplement chordae tendineae with zooplastic tissue, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement chordae tendineae with zooplastic tissue, 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 02U938Z

UNSPSC 85494219 Supplement chordae tendineae with zooplastic tissue, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific cardiac surgical procedure involving prosthetic tissue replacement—does not match the medical services and healthcare administration work appearing in recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code.

Recent opportunities show no procurement activity for the surgical procedure the code describes. Instead, the tagged solicitations cover independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit management programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. These services span governance, administration, and service delivery for public employee and beneficiary populations, but do not include the specialized cardiac intervention named in the code. The issuing bodies include state transportation departments, county health systems and boards, city retirement offices, and county procurement divisions across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The mismatch between the code's technical nomenclature and the broad healthcare-administration and staffing work listed suggests either a tagging error in the source data or a code that sees minimal or no relevant state and local procurement activity. Business development professionals should verify the code assignment before pursuing opportunities under this taxonomy entry.
