UNSPSC 85494380: Dilation of tricuspid valve, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of tricuspid valve, 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 027J4ZZ

UNSPSC 85494380 Dilation of tricuspid valve, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific cardiac surgical procedure, yet the state and local opportunities recently tagged under this code do not involve tricuspid valve dilation or percutaneous endoscopic cardiac work. Instead, the recent solicitations cover disability medical evaluations for public safety pension boards, surgical benefits management and Centers of Excellence networks for municipal employees, occupational health surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these align with the code's stated scope. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error in the source or that state and local procurement offices are using this code as a catch-all for medical and health services outside its intended definition.

The issuing bodies include municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), cities (City of Long Beach), a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), a county juvenile justice system (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county governments (Collier County, Santa Clara County), and county health systems, spanning Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Without recent opportunities that actually reflect the code's nominal scope, there is no meaningful geographic concentration or representative procurement pattern to characterize. A business development professional evaluating this code should treat it as unreliable for identifying actual tricuspid valve dilation opportunities at the state and local level and instead rely on direct market research or alternative code pathways for cardiac procedure-related work in the public sector.
