UNSPSC 85491804: Dilation of left pulmonary artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left pulmonary artery, percutaneous 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 027R3ZZ

UNSPSC 85491804 Dilation of left pulmonary artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code showing little relevant recent activity aligned with its clinical procedural scope. The code's nominal focus on a specific interventional cardiology procedure does not match the state and local contract opportunities recently tagged under it. Those opportunities instead reflect health system procurement for occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical networks, temporary clinical staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve pulmonary artery dilation procedures or match the code's intended clinical specification.

Recent opportunities show procurement by a state transportation authority, county health systems, county juvenile justice agencies, and municipal retirement boards across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries seeking occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office requesting independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determination (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach soliciting a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program with Centers of Excellence (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The misalignment between the code's procedural title and the actual scope of work being procured suggests either systematic miscoding at the source or that this particular code is not the appropriate identifier for current state and local healthcare service contracting activity.
