This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass coronary artery, two sites from thoracic artery with autologous arterial tissue, 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 02110AC

UNSPSC 85491520, Bypass coronary artery, two sites from thoracic artery with autologous arterial tissue, open approach, is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract activity available. The recent opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluations for public-safety disability retirement determinations, surgical benefit carve-out networks for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state transportation workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for youth in detention, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which describe coronary artery bypass procedures or related surgical services. The code appears to be a medical-procedure taxonomy entry that state and local procurement offices are not currently using to solicit contracting opportunities in the market.

The mismatch between the code's clinical scope (a specific surgical procedure) and the actual procurement activity suggests the code may be misapplied in the state and local procurement dataset, or that procedures of this type are not contracted as standalone services by state and local buyers. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for state and local opportunity purposes and verify directly with relevant procurement offices if they believe their surgical services align with actual demand.
