UNSPSC 85494242: Replacement of aortic valve with synthetic substitute, transapical, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of aortic valve with synthetic substitute, transapical, 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 02RF3JH

UNSPSC 85494242 Replacement of aortic valve with synthetic substitute, transapical, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code describing a specific cardiac surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code do not procure the procedure itself. Instead, state and local buying activity tagged to this code centers on occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve aortic valve replacement or cardiac surgery. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope; the opportunities present appear to be either miscoded by the issuing jurisdictions or reflect a classification artifact where medical service categories are tagged broadly without precision at the Commodity tier.

The issuing bodies posting opportunities under this code span county health systems, state transportation agencies, county pension boards, county commissioners' offices, and county juvenile probation departments across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Given the disconnect between the Commodity code's stated scope and the actual work being solicited, practitioners should verify code assignment during proposal preparation and may find more precise category alignment elsewhere in the UNSPSC taxonomy for health professional staffing, occupational medicine services, or employee benefit administration.
