UNSPSC 85491801 Dilation of thoracic aorta, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities recorded in the source show no cardiovascular procedures or percutaneous interventions; instead, they span inmate healthcare management, pharmacy benefit administration, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for mental health workers, and emergency medical services direction. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (a specific surgical intervention) and the work being solicited indicates that this code sees little relevant recent activity among state and local buyers, or that the tagging of opportunities to this code does not align with the code's intended meaning.

The five recent opportunities posted between February and May 2026 originate from county governments and municipal agencies across Florida, Georgia, and California—Muscogee County (Georgia), Collier County (Florida), Monroe County (Florida), San Mateo County (California), and the City of Santa Monica (California)—but none involve the medical procedure the code names. The issuing bodies include county purchasing divisions, county health departments, and municipal fire departments; the contracts range from inmate healthcare ($95,537.71 monthly for Muscogee County Prison) to pharmacy benefit management (estimated $8.7 million annually for Collier County) to mental health peer support ($580,000 over three years for San Mateo County). Business development professionals evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for practical procurement purposes and instead track the health services and social services codes under which these opportunities are actually being tagged and pursued.
