UNSPSC 85491111: Dilation of ductus arteriosus with intraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of ductus arteriosus with intraluminal device, 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 027R0DT

UNSPSC 85491111 Dilation of ductus arteriosus with intraluminal device, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a pediatric cardiac surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged under it span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical care networks, and emergency medical services for youth in detention — none of which involve dilation of a patent ductus arteriosus or the procedural intervention the code name specifies. The mismatch suggests that state and local procurement systems are applying this code to broader medical contracting activity where it does not fit the code's clinical scope.

The source records no solicitations aligned with the actual procedure described in the code. Recent opportunities instead reflect state and local health system purchasing for administrative medical services, staffing, and benefit plan management. Without evidence of genuine procurement activity under this code's nominal scope, the category does not support focused business development pursuit at this time.
