UNSPSC 85494344: Replacement of pulmonary valve with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of pulmonary 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 02RH4JZ

UNSPSC 85494344 Replacement of pulmonary valve with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not align with the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this classification. Recent opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefits carve-out administration, and youth detention healthcare services. These are healthcare administration, staffing placement, and benefits management activities rather than the implantable valve procedure the code nominally describes.

State and local issuing bodies posting under this code span county health systems (Santa Clara County), transit and occupational health programs (Washington State Department of Transportation), county benefits administration (Collier County), city retirement boards (Phoenix), municipal employee benefits (Long Beach), juvenile detention authorities (Harris County), and regional healthcare systems. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (responses due October 9, 2026), Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026). Geographic activity is concentrated in California, Arizona, Washington, and Florida. The mismatch between the code's procedural scope and the healthcare administration and staffing work actually being procured suggests either systematic miscoding in the source data or a taxonomy application error within state and local procurement systems.
