UNSPSC 85491102: Excision of left pulmonary artery, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left pulmonary artery, 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 02BR0ZZ

UNSPSC 85491102 Excision of left pulmonary artery, open approach is a Commodity code that does not map to the state and local procurement opportunities posted under it. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure — removal of a portion of the left pulmonary artery via open incision — but the recent solicitations tracked under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, employee pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical director contracts. None of these opportunities involve pulmonary artery excision or related surgical intervention, and the mismatch reflects a classification error in the source data rather than active state and local procurement in the code's nominal scope.

The code shows no recent activity aligned with its titled commodity. State and local governments do not appear to be soliciting pulmonary artery excision services, and the opportunities appearing under this code are unrelated to surgical vascular procedures. Business development professionals should not rely on this code for procurement targeting in that specialty and should flag the taxonomy mismatch to their procurement data vendor for correction.
