UNSPSC 85491047: Replacement of right pulmonary artery with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right pulmonary artery with autologous 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 02RQ07Z

UNSPSC 85491047 Replacement of right pulmonary artery with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure involving vascular replacement—bears no meaningful relationship to the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. Recent opportunities posted under this code include independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing across multiple clinical ancillary categories. None of these solicitations involve pulmonary artery replacement or related cardiothoracic surgical procedures. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the source data or that this Commodity code is being used as a catch-all for medical services and health benefit administration—neither of which aligns with the code's clinical specificity.

The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies including city pension boards (Phoenix), municipal employee benefit offices (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), county human resources and benefits consortia (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations at a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ (due October 7, 2026) establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing. The code shows no recent activity consistent with its stated clinical procedure definition.
