This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right pulmonary artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open 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 02UQ0KZ

UNSPSC 85491024 Supplement right pulmonary artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure using implantable tissue materials, yet recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code does not reflect surgical supply or implant procurement. Instead, the opportunities posted show state and local governments using this code to solicit occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, Centers of Excellence surgical carve-out benefits, and emergency medical services for detained youth. The code designation does not align with the work actually being bought. State and local issuers posting under this code include city retirement offices (Phoenix), state transportation departments (Washington State Ferries), county health systems (Santa Clara), county probation departments (Harris County), city employee benefits offices (Long Beach), and county human resources divisions (Collier County). The geographic spread spans Arizona, Washington, California, Texas, and Florida, with no single state or jurisdiction showing repeated activity under this specific code.

Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP 26001 for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 (medical record summary preparation and scheduling of disability examinations for 75 annual public safety pension applications, $750,000 five-year maximum); the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance across 14 Washington ferry locations due October 9, 2026 (baseline, periodic, and exit examinations for shipyard and deck crew); and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052 for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026 (non-exclusive multiple-award vendor pool across 13 ancillary clinical categories with no guaranteed work). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (surgical implants) and the actual buying behavior (medical services contracting) suggests this code is being applied inconsistently or erroneously in state and local procurement systems, and activity under the code title itself does not currently represent a meaningful procurement opportunity.
