UNSPSC 85494229: Replacement of pulmonary valve with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of pulmonary valve with autologous tissue substitute, 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 02RH37Z

UNSPSC 85494229 Replacement of pulmonary valve with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach (Commodity) bears no meaningful alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominates a highly specific surgical procedure, yet the most recent opportunities tagged under it solicit occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody, and surgical benefit carve-out programs—none of which involve pulmonary valve replacement or tissue substitutes. The mismatch between code nomenclature and actual buying patterns indicates that this code captures administrative or classification artifacts rather than genuine procurement demand.

State and local issuers posting under this code span health system administrators (Santa Clara County Health System, City of Long Beach), county purchasing offices (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County), city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), and state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation). Geographic activity appears distributed across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, though the opportunities themselves address general medical services administration and staffing rather than the specialized cardiac surgical procedure the code describes. The absence of vendor-specific surgical procurement, device manufacture, clinical facility provisioning, or physician credentialing signals that this code is not currently a viable target for firms pursuing state and local medical device, implant, or perioperative services contracts.
