About UNSPSC 85491076

UNSPSC 85491076 Insertion of infusion device into right pulmonary artery, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code describes a surgical procedure — insertion of a pulmonary artery infusion catheter under open surgical approach — yet the six recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code procure medical services and benefit administration that do not involve this procedure: independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical carve-out benefits for health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty hospital care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical specialties. None of these opportunities involve pulmonary artery device insertion or related cardiovascular surgical procedures.

State and local procurement offices rarely solicit cardiovascular surgical procedures directly as line-item acquisitions; such services are typically embedded within health plan agreements, health system contracts, or insurer-provider networks that are themselves being procured. The code-to-opportunity mismatch suggests either a cataloging error by the issuing jurisdiction or an automated coding assignment that misaligned with the actual work scopes. No opportunities in the recent activity block explicitly name pulmonary artery infusion device insertion as a required or billable service component. Prospective vendors should verify whether opportunities posted under this code actually require the procedure named before investing pre-bid effort.
