UNSPSC 85494707: Restriction of right pulmonary vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of right pulmonary vein, 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 02VS4ZZ

UNSPSC 85494707 Restriction of right pulmonary vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code with no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its clinical scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code—independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical and medical procedure carve-outs for municipal employee health plans (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System)—are administrative, occupational health, and workforce management services rather than pulmonary vein surgical procedures or cardiothoracic interventions. The tagging mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the state and local procurement systems or a miscoding of the solicitations themselves; the code as named does not correspond to the work actually being solicited.

State and local procurement activity under this code reflects the broader challenge of applying clinical procedure codes to administrative health services contracting. The issuing bodies span county health systems, municipal human resources departments, state transportation agencies, and county correctional authorities—none of which are sourcing the specific cardiothoracic surgical capability the code nominally describes. Given the absence of recent opportunities for the actual procedure or service the code names, this code warrants a skip unless your firm is actively pursuing government contracts for occupational health services or health plan administration, in which case the tagging error should be flagged with the issuing bodies during the Q&A cycle to clarify the correct UNSPSC classification.
