UNSPSC 85491527: Bypass coronary artery, two sites from left internal mammary with autologous venous tissue, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass coronary artery, two sites from left internal mammary with autologous venous 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 211099

UNSPSC 85491527 Bypass coronary artery, two sites from left internal mammary with autologous venous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect what state and local governments are actually procuring under this tag in recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local opportunities posted under this code encompass occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical carve-out benefit programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which constitute the described bypass procedure or align with the code's intended scope. The source shows a clear mismatch between the code's nominal definition and the work being purchased.

The code shows no recent opportunities for the specific surgical procedure named in its definition. State and local procurement activity tagged under this code across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington consists of health plan administration, medical staffing placement, and occupational health services—procurement categories that belong in other UNSPSC families, not in a Commodity code for a defined cardiac surgical intervention.
