UNSPSC 85491850: Destruction of right pulmonary artery, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of right 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 025Q3ZZ

UNSPSC 85491850 Destruction of right pulmonary artery, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows a fundamental mismatch between its nominal clinical-procedure classification and actual state and local procurement activity. Recent solicitations tagged under this code do not involve pulmonary artery destruction or percutaneous interventional procedures; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs, emergency youth detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the code's stated scope. The code appears to reflect a clinical billing or clinical taxonomy artifact rather than a functioning procurement classification for state and local government contracting.

The recent opportunities across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington show state and local governments soliciting healthcare-adjacent services primarily through county and municipal health systems and pension boards. The Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026) involves baseline and periodic medical examinations across 14 ferry system locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) covers disability medical record review and psychiatric examination scheduling for approximately 75 annual applications over five years at $750,000 maximum; Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (proposal deadline April 9, 2026) covers approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with approximately $8.7 million in historical annual spending. The code shows no relevant recent activity; the opportunities indicate state and local procurement offices are likely using alternative or more granular codes to classify these services, making UNSPSC 85491850 unsuitable for business development prospecting in this market.
