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 025H3ZZ

UNSPSC 85494281 Destruction of pulmonary valve, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that exhibits a fundamental mismatch between its nominal scope and actual state and local procurement activity. The code's technical name refers to a specific cardiac surgical procedure performed in a clinical or interventional setting; however, recent opportunities tagged under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, disability evaluation services, and surgical benefit carve-outs for employee health plans—none of which involve pulmonary valve procedures. The tagged opportunities instead reflect broader government health services contracting around benefits administration, occupational health compliance, and workforce health management.

Issuing bodies in the recent opportunities block include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county agencies (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and a public pension system (Phoenix Retirement Office). Geographic spread encompasses Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas, with no clear concentration. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) spanning disability benefit determinations for approximately 75 annual applications; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminal locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference August 31, 2026); the City of Long Beach's RFP for a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program for its Anthem Blue Cross PPO plan (HR26753, due October 7, 2026); and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members (258414, due April 9, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated procedure scope.
