UNSPSC 85494318: Supplement tricuspid valve with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement tricuspid valve with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 02UJ4JZ

UNSPSC 85494318 Supplement tricuspid valve with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code—independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—do not align with procurement of tricuspid valve implants or percutaneous cardiac procedures. None of the posted solicitations solicit medical devices, surgical implants, or procedure-specific supplies of the type the code nominally describes.

The mismatch between the code's scope and the recent opportunities suggests either systematic miscoding in the issuing bodies' procurement systems or that state and local governments are not currently soliciting tricuspid valve replacements through public contracting processes. Buyers pursuing this code should verify whether state and local health systems, departments of corrections, detention facilities, or regional medical authorities are engaging in device procurement through different UNSPSC classifications, or whether such acquisitions occur through group purchasing organization agreements, existing contracts, or direct vendor relationships outside the RFP cycle.
