UNSPSC 85494714: Supplement left pulmonary vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left pulmonary vein with nonautologous tissue 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 02UT4KZ

UNSPSC 85494714 Supplement left pulmonary vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code nominally describing a highly specialized surgical implant procedure, but recent state and local contract opportunities show no alignment with that scope. The recent solicitations tagged under this code procure occupational medical surveillance services, independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for government health plans, pharmacy benefit management services, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve pulmonary vein supplementation or implantable tissue substitutes. The code shows little relevant recent activity for vendors offering the procedure or device the code nominally describes.

The geographic spread of recent activity centers on California, Washington State, Arizona, Florida, and Texas, with the Washington State Department of Transportation, City of Long Beach, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System, City of Phoenix Retirement Office, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, and other municipal and county agencies as issuing bodies. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix independent medical evaluation services RFP for pension disability determinations (due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach surgical benefit carve-out RFP for its Anthem Blue Cross PPO plan (due October 7, 2026), and the Collier County pharmacy benefit management RFP covering approximately $8.7 million in annual pharmacy spend (due April 9, 2026). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited suggests this code may have been applied incorrectly to health services contracting categories that fall outside surgical implant procurement.
