This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass coronary artery, two sites from right internal mammary 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 02110A8

UNSPSC 85491522 Bypass coronary artery, two sites from right internal mammary with autologous arterial tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the source shows no recent state and local opportunities soliciting for coronary artery bypass surgery or related cardiac surgical services. Instead, recent opportunities tagged under or near this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical center-of-excellence networks — none of which are cardiac bypass procedures. The mismatch suggests this code may be a cataloging error or that state and local buyers do not actively solicit for specific surgical procedures under UNSPSC coding.

The most recent opportunities in the source block are unrelated to the code's stated scope: the Washington State Department of Transportation is procuring occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office is contracting for independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations; the City of Long Beach is requesting surgical procedure carve-out benefits through centers of excellence; and the County of Santa Clara Health System is establishing a vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing. No issuing body is soliciting cardiac bypass surgery, nor do any of the recent contracts involve surgical procedure codes. This code shows little relevant recent activity for business development purposes under state and local procurement.
