This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left pulmonary vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 02UT3KZ

UNSPSC 85494614 Supplement left pulmonary vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal description does not align with the state and local procurement activity posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged to this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—span administrative healthcare services, employee health programs, and clinical staffing. None of these opportunities involve vascular or cardiothoracic surgical procedures or implantable devices. The code shows little relevant procurement activity aligned with its stated scope, and the mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy label and actual buying patterns suggests misclassification at the issuing-body level.

The recent opportunities span diverse issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluations), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefits management), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (occupational medicine), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty care), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary health professional staffing)—across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. None of these opportunities represent procurement of the device or surgical service named in the code taxonomy itself.
