UNSPSC 85491940: Replacement of right pulmonary artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right pulmonary artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 02RQ4KZ

UNSPSC 85491940 Replacement of right pulmonary artery with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code for a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not align with surgical intervention. Instead, issuing bodies are soliciting medical evaluation and surveillance services, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve vascular or pulmonary artery replacement. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity suggests either systematic miscoding in the posting system or that the UNSPSC taxonomy is being applied inconsistently by posting offices. No recent opportunities reflect procurement of surgical implants, biomedical devices, or operative services related to pulmonary artery repair.

The recent opportunities identified under this code span the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation (ferries division), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County (Florida), and Santa Clara County Health System—a mix of municipal retirement boards, county human resources departments, state transportation authorities, and county health systems. Representative solicitations include Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations (deadline October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), Long Beach's RFP for surgical carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence for PPO plan members (deadline October 7, 2026), WSDOT's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across fourteen ferry system locations statewide (deadline October 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary ancillary clinical staffing (deadline October 7, 2026). The code shows activity concentrated in the Southwest and West Coast with no geographic breadth sufficient to characterize a national pattern, and the procurement mix suggests the code is functioning as a catch-all for health services contracting rather than as a marker for surgical implant or device procurement.
