UNSPSC 85491904: Restriction of left pulmonary artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left pulmonary artery, percutaneous endoscopic 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 02VR4ZZ

UNSPSC 85491904 Restriction of left pulmonary artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal medical-procedural scope and the actual state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent solicitations posted under this code do not involve pulmonary artery procedures or endoscopic interventions. Instead, the opportunities span independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, occupational health surveillance programs, surgical benefit management and Center of Excellence networks, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which align with the code's stated clinical procedure. State and local issuing bodies pursuing these opportunities include city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county health systems, county juvenile probation departments, and county commissioners' boards across multiple states, reflecting the diversity of public-sector health-care administration and procurement.

The recent opportunities are geographically dispersed across Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, addressing approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications for public safety pension determinations, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services covering 14 Washington ferry system locations, due October 9, 2026, with a two-year term and optional five-year extensions; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification-based RFQ for a multiple-award vendor pool of temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical specialties, due October 7, 2026. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its pulmonary procedure nomenclature and warrants clarification with procurement offices regarding proper categorization.
